IN THE REALMS OF SORROW
London Handel Festival
‘In Emma Woods’ choreography we truly felt the muscular anger at the physical loss of her lover, adding to the poignancy of Ero’s own eventual death.’
Arts Desk ★★★★★
‘Bodies in space, tumbling, rolling, hurtling; at the same time singing, playing, dancing […] unforgettable.’
Observer ★★★★★
‘Raw, muscular, visceral, haunting – this was Handel you’ve never experienced him before.’
