In collaboration with Giles Thomas, I composed the soundtrack for the Sherman Theatre‘s staging of Ibsen’s Hedda Gabler, directed by Chelsea Walker.
Writer: Henrik Ibsen (Translated by Brian Friel) Director: Chelsea Walker Set & Costume Designer: Rosanna Vize Composers: Robert Sword & Giles Thomas Lighting Designer: Joe Fletcher Movement Director: Michela Meazza
“The music, by Giles Thomas and Robert Sword, provides an ominous undertone – a constant, thrumming pulse – as the tension builds” The Stage – ★★★★
“With evocative lighting by Joseff Fletcher and music by Robert Sword and Giles Thomas, the stage often feels like it’s breathing. It’s a rich theatrical experience.” The Guardian – ★★★★
“Director Chelsea Walker’s stunning production of this iconic play adds a stylish and modern sheen which contrasts with the haunting and surreal treatment of Hedda’s descent into madness.” Western Mail – ★★★★★
