Return to Eliotland

AN Wilson explores the life and work of TS Eliot. From The Love Song of J Alfred Prufrock to The Waste Land and from Ash Wednesday to Four Quartets, Wilson traces Eliot's life story as it informs his greatest works.He explores how Eliot's realisation that he and Vivien were fundamentally incompatible influenced The Waste Land and examines how Eliot's subsequent conversion to Anglicanism coloured his later works. Wilson concludes his journey by visiting some of the key locations around which the poet structured his final masterpiece, Four Quartets. Eliot's poetry is widely regarded as complex and difficult; it takes on weighty ideas of time, memory, faith and belief, themes which Wilson argues have as much relevance today as during the poet's lifetime. And whilst hailing his genius, Wilson does not shy away from confronting the discomforting and dark side of his work - the poems now widely regarded as anti-Semitic.

Salvation

Sutera (lat. soter = savior, to save) is a sleepy, ancient village of 800 inhabitants in the heart of Sicily, located under a mountain. In the past four decades it has lost 90% of its population. In the last years, Sicily experienced the brunt of the refugee wave coming across the Mediterranean, trying to get to the European shores. Following a marine tragedy in 2013, the inhabitants of Sutera opened the doors of the empty houses for the migrants. The main piazza was buzzing again with life but soon the migrants faced unemployment and a lack of job opportunities. A story of migration as economic choice vs. migration as a desperate act of last resort.

Bricks

When a wealthy stockbroker hires a rough builder to renovate the wine cellar underneath his country house, the two men fall out with chilling consequences.

Rich stockbroker William (Blake Ritson, DA VINCI'S DEMONS) hires rough builder Clive (Jason Flemyng, THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON) to renovate his wine cellar. The two men couldn't be more different: William is rich and refined; Clive is tough and uncouth. But in the shadowy cellar they find common ground. At least at first...

Royal Opera House: Carmen

This ever-popular opera is given a fresh point of view in Barrie Kosky’s highly physical production, originally created for Frankfurt Opera. The Australian director is one of the world’s most sought-after opera directors, whose Royal Opera debut with Shostakovich’s The Nose in 2016 was greeted with delight. For Carmen he has devised a far-from-traditional version, incorporating music written by Bizet for the score but not usually heard, and giving a new voice to the opera’s endlessly fascinating central character.
