Murmurs starring Aurélia Thierrée

A tour of whirlwind romance, city confusion, undersea encounters and dining-room debacles told through a blend of theatre, illusion and dance by director and designer Victoria Thierrée Chaplin with Aurélia Thierrée.

In this follow-up to the internationally acclaimed Aurélia's Oratorio, Aurélia Thierrée is a woman fleeing from reality, her life packed up in cardboard boxes. Seemingly everyday actions become a spectacle of the strange and beautiful as she becomes immersed in snippets of others' lives.

Recommended for ages eight and over.

'An absolute spellbinder... It is like an enchanting dream, and like most vivid reveries, it momentarily colours the way you see the waking world.' (The Daily Telegraph on Aurélia's Oratorio)
