Chamber Made Opera and Rawcus extend boundaries in all the work they do. Together they reprise their 2010 production Another Lament, directed by Kate Sulan. Originally presented in a private living room, this beautiful improvisation on Henry Purcell’s music will see the Beckett Theatre transformed into a kind of living room.Purcell, the 17th century English composer, died at the tender age of 35 (or 36 depending on who you ask). Mystery surrounds his death: some believe he died of exposure after returning from the theatre one night only to find that he’d been locked out by his wife. Others think is was tuberculosis, or something more sinister.Another Lament investigates the tragedy of Purcell’s music and his untimely demise. Performers from Rawcus are joined by a solo instrument: Danish bass player and chanteuse Ida Duelund Hansen.
