Station House Opera's second transcontinental live Internet performance, What's wrong with the world?, takes place in the Soho Theatre Bar in London and Oi Futuro Theatre in Rio de Janeiro, the Anglo-Brazilian company performing together across 6,000 miles with audiences in each city watching simultaneously, early evening in Rio and late night in London.
What's wrong with the world? combines two cities and two stories to form a single vibrating narrative of distance, delay, loss and discovery, where the performers in London mingle, merge and collide with their counterparts in Rio.
Like watching constantly colliding parallel worlds... A genuinely unique theatrical event.
