"Placing an audience right in the centre of human drama...I aim to bring that to opera."

Looking back at his previous theatre work, we heard from Director of Angel's Bone Kip Williams (@kip_williams) in our latest episode of In the Studio on how he has translated his experience in theatre to opera.

Making his opera and English National Opera (@englishnationalopera) debut, Angel's Bone also marks the continuation of his long-term creative collaboration with award-winning Designer, Marg Horwell (@marghorwell) - whose recent successes include The Picture of Dorian Gray on Broadway and Dracula starring Cynthia Erivo in the West End.

Angel's Bone finishes in Manchester tomorrow (Saturday 16 May) - don't miss it!

Watch the latest episode of In the Studio with Kip Williams 🎥

During rehearsals, we spoke with Director of Angel's Bone Kip Williams (@kip_williams) as he shared more insight into the themes and narrative of the show.

Williams makes his English National Opera and UK opera debut with Angel’s Bone, marking the continuation of his long-term creative collaboration with award-winning Designer, Marg Horwell (@marghorwell) - whose recent successes include The Picture of Dorian Gray on Broadway and Dracula starring Cynthia Erivo in the West End.

An English National Opera (@englishnationalopera) production in collaboration with Factory International and BBC Philharmonic (@bbcphilharmonic), along with performances from Kantos Choir (@kantoschoir), Angel’s Bone tells the haunting story of two fallen angels, drawn back to earth by a longing for its pleasures.

In the Studio is Factory International's series where artists and collectives show us the space where their ideas come to life.

Our next Philharmonic Sessions with BBC Philharmonic Orchestra features Stravinsky's The Rite of Spring 🎻

Next week, the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra (@bbcphilharmonic) returns to Aviva Studios - we caught up with Director of BBC Philharmonic Orchestra Adam Szabo (szaboadam_) to learn more about the significance of Stravinsky's masterpiece...

Few pieces have shaken the musical world like Stravinsky’s The Rite of Spring, with its 1913 premiere in Paris famously caused a riot.

Alongside The Rite of Spring, hear two UK premieres of Chemiluminescence by Jessie Montgomery (@jmontymusic) and No Such Spring by Samuel Adams (@samuelcarladams).

📍 The Hall, Aviva Studios
📅 22 May
🎟️ Standing Stalls only £15
