This year we are reprising our 2014 production of Rain Dance. Inspired by "The Hare Who Would Not Be King", Tish Farrell's adaptation of an Akamba folk tale, Rain Dance is the story of animals on the South African savanna facing a drought, the Machiavellian lion whom they elect to lead them, and their unlikely hero, a brilliant but neurotic and politically apathetic rabbit.
Rain Dance was commissioned by the W11 Opera for Young People (now London Youth Opera) and first performed by them in December 2010. The opera was written by Stuart Hancock (music) and by Donald Sturrock (libretto).
