A Dust in Time

We are excited to present Huang Ruo's A Dust in Time. 

Inspired by the symbolism of the Mandala intertwined with the European tradition of the passacaglia, A Dust in Time has been created to give those affected by the pandemic a means to reflect and heal, and to find peace, strength, and hope.

Please visit the webpages below to find out more about the programme and to book.
