Handel's Messiah
Returning for a third year, our innovative dramatisation of Handel’s legendary oratorio has received critical acclaim and standing ovations across the country.
Performing the entire piece from memory, the singers bring music and story to life, with staging devised by theatre and opera director Tom Morris (Breaking the Waves, Dr Semmelweis, War Horse).
The musicians of the Wild Arts Ensemble, playing period instruments, are directed by Wild Arts’ Artistic Director Orlando Jopling in this enthralling and moving production that has received standing ovations across the country.
