Tao Of Glass

About Tao Of Glass

Tao Of Glass at 4 Soho Place, Charing Cross Road, is a West End premiere that explores life, loss and the question of where true inspiration comes from. It is the latest collaboration between composer Philip Glass and performer-director Phelim McDermott of Improbable, following their acclaimed opera productions in London, New York and beyond.

Inspired by a dream, the production brings together ten meditations on life, death and Taoist wisdom with ten brand new pieces of music by Glass. Presented by McDermott with an ensemble of musicians and puppeteers, it combines storytelling, live music and theatrical performance in one piece.

Described as part-concert and part-performance, Tao Of Glass is produced by Factory International, Improbable and Nica Burns. It has received five-star reviews from The Guardian, The Times and What’s On Stage, and four-star reviews from The Telegraph, The Observer and The Arts Desk.
