City of Shadows
Crime and a string quartet come together in a hauntingly beautiful performance.
Overview
Music, photography and crime weave a delicate web as City of Shadows — A Song Cycle of Murder, Misfortune and Forensics takes the stage in Melbourne. On a backdrop of forensic and police photography, a string quartet and vocals deliver a collection of songs that honour the images of the forgotten, all the while making you step back and think. Think about those who’ve committed such crimes, those that could, and the human capacity for weakness. The graphic images come from the Justice and Police Museum’s photography collection and tell tales of mystery and danger.
Conceived, written and directed by Rachel Dease, this one is set to be hauntingly beautiful.
