Raf Bonachela: The Land of Yes and the Land of No

💾

Rafael Bonachela, artistic director of Sydney Dance Company, and the composer Ezio Bosso, together devised the work and music for The Land of Yes and the Land of No as a collaboration with HiBROW. Rafael took the bold move of rehearsing and performing the piece on the steps of St Paul’s Cathedral over three consecutive weekday lunchtimes. The work was received with great enthusiasm, and audiences grew each day as word spread of this extraordinary event. Mobile technology allowed the HiBROW team to immerse themselves in the project, allowing the viewer into the heart of it in a way seldom seen on screen before.

Derek Jarman's War Requiem

💾

Derek Jarman creates a visual evocation of Benjamin Britten’s choral masterpiece, The War Requiem, which blends the Latin Mass of the Dead with the poignant poetry of Wilfred Owen. Dramatised scenes featuring spellbinding performances from an extraordinary cast are interwoven with cinematic, poetic images and harrowing archive footage, which all serve to recreate the horrors of 20th century wars – the loss of innocence, the unbearable suffering, the nightmares, the tragic waste of life. Critically acclaimed on its release, Derek Jarman’s War Requiem is perhaps the visionary director’s greatest film. As a testament to the futility of war it is a unique, poignant and haunting experience.

All is Vanity - Run Through

💾

When HiBROW approached Dominic Hill, artistic director of the Traverse Theatre in Edinburgh, to serve as its first curator of theatre he explained that he had wanted to preserve the theatre's 50 year old international reputation as the champion of fresh contemporary playwriting. To demonstrate that, he commissioned five leading British writers to write a half hour play which would unapologetically rely on text and be performed in what is now regarded as an established 'hybrid' platform for new plays: the 'staged reading'.

All is Vanity is one such play, directed by the wonderful David Eldridge.

Featuring: Dominic Hill (director), David Eldridge (writer), Jane Bertish (Ursula), Meg Fraser (Charlotte) and others...
