An operatic audio tour across The City
Bathed in fire, flood, love and turmoil And While London Burns is a compelling collision of thriller, opera and guided walk.
Starring recent Olivier Award nominee Douglas Hodge, this soundtrack for the era of climate change is set amongst the skyscrapers of the most powerful financial district on Earth, London’s Square Mile. An opera for one, it takes the listener, equipped with an mp3 player on a walking audio adventure through the streets and alleyways of our city.
Composer Isa Suarez’s stirring score evokes London’s fiery past, oil drenched present and a dark unknowable future through the eyes of a tormented financial worker obsessed by the collapse of civilisations. Produced by award winning arts organisation, PLATFORM and written by John Jordan and James Marriott And While London Burns is a requiem for a warming world.
