Sound Affairs

Michelangelo Drawing Blood

Tuesday 7 May, 7.30pm

Michelangelo: painter, sculptor, architect, engineer and poet - the original, and perhaps ultimate, Renaissance man.

Michelangelo Drawing Blood delves into the forces that drove his genius - an obsession with human anatomy, a passionate response to the male body and an equally intense Christian faith. 21st century theatre meets 16th century culture as three male performers bring to life the fluid twists and turns of Michelangelo's drawings accompanied by music composed by Charlie Barber and performed live on Renaissance instruments.

In keeping with so many productions from Sound Affairs this show promises to offer audiences a theatrical experience with a difference.
