A "promenade" quasi-installation type performance with words and music at St John's Co-Cathedral.
The audience are invited to experience the splendour of St John's Co-Cathedral in a way they have never done before. This evening has been curated around that most harrowing yet poignant time in the Christian Liturgy through the music and art that was created over centuries to reflect this. The glorious marbled floor of the cathedral will be exposed, revealing the Latin epitaphs inscribed on the tombstones, the symbolism and metaphors for death and afterlife, the elaborate coats of arms.
The audience enters to the sound of the king of instruments with Haydn's Terremoto (Earthquake) and is led through one experience after the other, encapsulating the different emotions of the last moments of the Passion of Christ on the cross. There will be moments of tenderness, moments of angst, moments of transcendental beauty, and moments of surprise. All senses will be engaged in this unique promenade, immersive, and interactive experience, in the most magnificent cathedral - scents, lights, movement, sound, words, and imagery - entwined with tradition and restrained, but noble, spectacle.
