It's Pittsburg, 1969, and the city's Hill District is far from the vibrant, bustling, jazz-soaked African-American neighbourhood it was in its prime. August Wilson's Two Trains Running brings a shabby diner in this threatened community to life, offering a window onto the lives of seven irregular regular customers and, ultimately, the state of America in the sixties.

BWW Review: MACBETH, Hackney Empire
by Aliya Al-Hassan
- Mar 10, 2019
There is something very noble about the mission of English Touring Opera to bring the art form to parts of the country that would normally never see it. They often bravely overlook the popular productions and turn to lesser-known ones such as Mozart's Idomeneo and Rossini's Elizabeth I. As part of their spring season, they look to Verdi's first adaptation of a Shakepearean play with Macbeth.
