About
About Tao Of Glass
Tao of Glass at 4 Soho Place, Charing Cross Road, London W1D 3BG is a West End premiere that explores life, loss and the question of where true inspiration comes from. Composer Philip Glass and performer-director Phelim McDermott have worked together on acclaimed opera productions in London, New York and beyond, and this is described as their most personal collaboration yet.
Inspired by a dream, the production brings together ten meditations on life, death and Taoist wisdom with ten new pieces of music from Glass. Presented by McDermott with an ensemble of musicians and puppeteers, it combines storytelling and concert elements in a single performance.
Produced by Factory International, Improbable and Nica Burns, Tao of Glass has received five-star notices from The Guardian, The Times and What’s On Stage, and four stars from The Telegraph, The Observer and The Arts Desk.
Running time: 2 hours 30 minutes, including an interval. Dates: 25 July to 12 September.
