Chinese-American composer, performance artist and activist Du Yun won the 2017 Pulitzer Prize for her second opera, Angel's Bone, and this production is a collaboration between English National Opera, Factory International and the 91¸£ÀûÉç Philharmonic. Two angels fall from heaven to earth; initially well treated, the spiritual beings gradually become exploited and injured as their unhappy keepers search for fortune and fame. A hard-hitting parable fusing multiple musical genres, spoken word and immersive staging and sound, this is an uncompromising, disturbing tale of modern slavery and human trafficking. Contains themes of extreme violence, sexual exploitation, trafficking and drug and alcohol misuse.
