Season Announcements
Overview
We are born longing.
Longings for love and safety soon deepen into intangible yearnings…
The Germans experience ‘Sehnsucht’, that inconsolable longing in the human heart for things far-off and indefinable.
The Welsh suffer ‘hiraeth’, a homesickness for a home to which you cannot return and maybe never was.
The Portuguese feel ‘saudade’, an intense desire for something unspoken, the presence of absence, the love that remains after love is gone…
In this recital, multi award winning opera and cabaret star Jacqui Dark will lead you on a poignant exploration of all the things we long for and long to leave behind.
