O Vienna, & other ideas


A mixed bill of upstream performance (bodies / text / music) including a first showing of Chris Goode's wildly challenging performance score O Vienna, framed by a submerged and convoluted narrative involving the life-stories and work of figures such as the poet Paul Celan and the Actionist artist Rudolf Schwarzkogler. For this performance the fragmentary score is interpreted by close associate Jonny Liron with the directorial collaboration of Goode himself.

Other performers presenting work during the evening are the poets Caroline Bergvall and Marianne Morris; and the musicians Dominic Lash and Tom James Scott, who'll both be doing solo sets.
