The People's String Foundation: Res Publica

About

"Res Publica" is a brand new musical touring show from acclaimed South West band: The People's String Foundation, (virtuoso violinist Ben Sutcliffe and co-founder and composer Zaid Al-Rikabi). During this piece the band packs a 32 piece Gypsy Orchestra into a suitcase and takes them on tour, inviting the audience on an incredible journey of discovery. Using music, puppetry, art, cinematography and animation all set to the backdrop of a "Virtual Orchestra," (recorded at The Hall for Cornwall, in 2018) "ResPublica" is a unique project that combines many art forms to create one immersive and exhilarating show. The second half of the show offers the audience the chance to hear The People's String Foundation's most popular songs and compositions from their time working as musical directors for companies such as Kneehigh and Rogue Theatre and The Minack.
