The Nature of Why at Brighton Festival

  • Brighton Dome Concert Hall (map)

Inspired by the wildly creative and iconoclastic theoretical physicist, Richard Feynman, this boundary-breaking, immersive experience rejects the formal conventions of orchestral performance, defying expectation. 

A cinematic live score, composed by Goldfrapp’s Will Gregory, is performed by the British Paraorchestra and Army of Generals, alongside four extraordinary dancers; blurring boundaries between music and dance, performer and audience, resulting in a deeply personal, emotionally participative event, all taking place with performers and audience side by side on Brighton Dome's Concert Hall Stage.
