In a new commission from the Barbican, These Wondering Stones follows the mysterious weaver of Cloth Fair, who spends her days weaving the fabric of the City of London’s rich history, every thread of every life bound together in a magnificent, shimmering, perfect tapestry. That is, until the impetuous Lettice accidentally rips a hole as long as the Thames itself, right through the tapestry’s heart. Lettice will need your help on an epic quest in this promenade opera, as she attempts to gather the stories of the Londoners whose lives she has torn apart.
