SUMMARY:THE MONSTER IN THE MAZE Music-Makers of Sheffield including\, Ensemble 360\, Consone Quartet\, Bridge Ensemble & Guests
DESCRIPTION:An opera production for the people of Sheffield and with the people of Sheffield. \n“Here they are – the children of Athens!\nThe hope of Athens\, the future of Athens!\nDeep in the maze\, the monster\, already\npaws the sand and tosses his horns…” \n      - libretto\, Monster in the Maze \nKing Minos has a labyrinth in his palace. Inside there lurks a Minotaur. This monster\, half man and half bull\, feeds on human flesh.  \nMinos decrees that the Athenians should provide a regular supply of their young people to be sacrificed to the monster. The Athenian hero Theseus steps in\, determined to enter the maze and take on the monster at its heart… \nJonathan Dove’s ‘The Monster in the Maze’ receives its Sheffield premiere on the iconic Crucible stage.
