Vic’s Tony Award-winning Artistic Director Tom Morris (War Horse), Messiah from
Bristol Old Vic explores the drama and struggle of faith, showing a bereaved
community whose grief at the loss of their leader is transformed into hope
through a narrative of resurrection. Recorded in the theatre in 2017, it
features internationally renowned soloists Catherine Wyn Rogers and Julia
Doyle, The Erebus Ensemble (Songs of Hope) and the celebrated Baroque
orchestra The English Concert.
