Einstein on the Beach
About this event
Experience the gravitational pull of this iconic opera in a new production directed by Improbable’s Phelim McDermott and created for the present moment. “The distinction between past, present and future is… a stubbornly persistent illusion.” – Albert Einstein Over a century ago, Albert Einstein changed how we see the universe through the power of human imagination, with his novel ideas on space, time and quantum physics. Fifty years ago, Philip Glass and Robert Wilson revolutionised opera with Einstein on the Beach, blowing open the possibilities of the genre by incorporating experimental music and theatre. Now, Einstein on the Beach is transformed again with a once-in-a-lifetime experiential staging presented by English National Opera and Factory International. A collision of artforms – music and theatre, live art and light, sculpture and movement – Einstein on the Beach invites you to enter a 360-degree world where Einstein’s ideas and Glass’s music are felt all around you. Vast in scale, it encompasses a huge cast of vocalists, instrumentalists, actors and movement artists, including local performers from across Greater Manchester. With this ambitious new staging, Phelim McDermo
