Schubert:  Winterreise, D.911

Acclaimed director Katie Mitchell returns to New Visions from her 2008 production of Waves to stage One Evening, a gripping performance that explores the profound affect Franz Schubert’s music had on Samuel Beckett. Celebrated tenor Mark Padmore’s expressive account of the composer’s wrenching song-cycle Winterreise, in a new English translation, is paired with an actor’s readings of the iconic playwright’s poetry and prose on themes of the human condition.

Co-production with Aldeburgh Music and South Bank Centre
