The Open Cage - premiere this weekend

The Open Cage premieres this weekend at The Yard in Hackney Wick. Book tickets here!

Alone in his workshop, deep in the labyrinth which he built and in which he has been trapped for years, the great inventor Daedalus is putting the finishing touches to two giant pairs of wings...

The Open Cage is a new one-act opera. Scored for two singers, with an ensemble of acoustic and electronic instruments, the piece uses an array of visual media in its unique retelling of the Icarus myth.
