And today’s ThisWeek-tipped, LDN-based events are…
OPERA/KIDS: Listen To The Silence – A Journey With John Cage | Royal Opera House | until 1 Feb (pictured)
Zonzo Compagnie dials up this unique-sounding show for all the family, an interactive experience inspired by composer John Cage’s noiseless work ‘4’33’. In it, children are invited to create their own sonic (and silent) landscapes. Details and tickets here.
THEATRE: Joan Of Arc | New Diorama Theatre | until 28 Feb
Award-winning youth company The Faction stage this take on Schiller’s play of 1801 ‘The Maid Of Orleans’, the tragedy of a woman ready to fight to the death in God’s name. Details and tickets here.
THEATRE: TS Eliot’s Murder In The Cathedral | Temple Church | until 1 Feb
TS Eliot’s verse drama based on the historic assassination of Archbishop and “turbulent priest” Thomas Becket, which was written in 1935 in reaction to the rise of fascism, is revived, at a fittingly tense time for religion v politics, in the fittingly godly Temple Church. Director Joe Hamston’s spin on the text, which features a pro cast alongside a bunch of moonlighting lawyers. Details and tickets here.
