Ed Hughes' 'States of Innocence' to Screen at Depot Cinema
22 August 2024"Hughes's score… sinewy, eclectic and attractive...Consistently fine voices and excellent conducting from Andrew Gourlay … Tim Hopkins' handsome semi-staging, with its video projections (by Ian Winters) of whirling skyscapes, lush vegetation, astrological charts and strikingly beautiful chiaroscuro lighting" - Tim Ashley, Guardian Review
