It’s the very image of a happy family, and we were taken with how in sync the entire group felt at first sight. Founded in mid-2015 by soprano Akiko Otao and tenor … Continue reading Spirited Away: Meeting the Team Behind L’arietta’s Purgatory

The Malay Heritage Centre kicked off its annual Malay CultureFest on 13th October with a bang. Opening the festival was a spectacle of stylised dance, ethnic drums and martial arts tracing the roots of the sub-ethnic community from Bugis – from the myth of their creation, to the people’s departure from their homeland after the Makassar War in the 1600s.

Giving Shakespeare’s script a Japanese makeover, Ninagawa’s Macbeth transposes the cursed ‘Scottish play’ to 16th century Azuchi-Momoyama Japan, where soldiers … Continue reading Preview: Macbeth by the Ninagawa Company
