We too, can be any of these people
Du Yun Angel’s Bone (UK premiere)
‘Art does not solve problems. Art, at its best, functions to provoke and suggest. When we choose to have our characters sing, we tackle a phenomenon: we too, can be any of these people — angels or not, middleman or not.’
– Du Yun
Angel’s Bone is a Pulitzer Prize-winning contemporary opera by Chinese American composer Du Yun and librettist Royce Vavrek. A dark fable exploring modern-day slavery and human trafficking, it draws inspiration from a range of musical genres from classical to cabaret and punk. Its UK premiere is the result of a collaboration between English National Opera, Factory International and the ³ÉÈË¿ìÊÖ Philharmonic Orchestra, in a new production specifically imagined for the dramatic Warehouse space at Aviva Studios.
Tickets for Angel’s Bone will go on sale in Autumn 2025.
