The performance will then travel to Antwerp. It is a collaboration between International Theater Amsterdam and Toneelhuis.

Under the direction of Ivo Van Hove, Czech composer's Leos Janacek's song cycle, The Diary of One Who Disappeared, is given a rare performance by Muziektheater Transparant.
On April 12 Invada Records in conjunction with Lakeshore Records will release All About Eve-Original Soundtrack, composed by double Mercury Music Prize-winner PJ Harvey. The 12-track album contains 10 original pieces of instrumental music as well as two new songs written by Harvey and sung by Gillian Anderson and Lily James.

The album is produced by PJ Harvey, with additional production and mixing from Adam 'Cecil' Bartlett.
