We are delighted to share that we have been working with Opera UpClose
to create filmed visuals to form part of their new production.

Vaughan Williams’ and John Synge’s sung play Riders to the Sea tells the
story of a family, Maurya, Bartley, Kathleen and Nora and a seemingly
inevitable chain of events.  Partnered with a new dramatic prologue, The
Last Bit of the Moon, composed by Michael Betteridge and written by
ArtfulScribe's Community Sirens Collective led by Antosh Wojcik, this
masterful miniature expands into an exploration of the core collective
experiences of humankind – grief and love.

In a production combining projection, recorded sound and live
performance, and with a new chamber orchestration for oboe, clarinet and
accordion, this is powerfully direct musical storytelling at its most
visceral.

Touring until 3rd March.
