Darkness Visible: Âme x Lawrence Power

Âme Creative Studios make their Barbican debut with Lawrence Power in a concert that breaks down the walls of the concert hall and takes you on a musical journey across the City of London at night.

In Darkness Visible, the line between stage and screen is paper thin. Dynamic live performance is interwoven with beautifully filmed projections by director Jessie Rodger and 360° sound design from producer Brett Cox to create an immersive concert that sparks the imagination and plays with your perception of performance, space and music.

Lawrence Power will lead you through a selection of hidden spaces after dark, stepping from the boards of the Barbican stage to the shimmering streets of the City and back again, as if by magic, alongside a group of very special musical guests.

We invite you to experience the City as you’ve never seen, or heard it before.

7:30-9:00pm (no interval)
