En direct, Vidéo: Rechercher des critiques de musique classique, opéra et ballet | Old Vic Tunnels

In the thick musty air of the Old Vic Tunnels, the Without Warning cast, led by choreographer Lizzi Kew-Ross, delivered a haunting exploration of the writer Brian Keenan’s more than four years in captivity, with a cacophony of sound, light and movement. Keenan’s story, documented in his book An Evil Cradling (1991), reflects on the years he spent kept in captivity by Islamic fundamentalists.

Walking down the steps to the Old Vic Tunnels, which were covered in graffiti and grime, it felt like a grungy, punk rock club lay at the end of this lackluster pathway. But once inside the Tunnels, it was clear that these dark, stone caves were the perfect space for a performance of Jessica Curry’s new choral work, Perpetual Light: Requiem for an Unscorched Earth.
