Tuning forks are blended with live voice to create a vivid and unique sound world for individual audience members in this experience by Verity Standen taking place in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.

Tuning forks are traditionally used for pitching – unheard by audiences – but up close they create beautiful, surprising sounds as instruments in their own right.

By blending these metallic tones with live voice, two performers will create a vivid and unique sound world for individual audience members in this experience by Verity Standen ('Startling' The Guardian (on HUG)).

Made for: Discovering new sounds in the park.

Meeting Point: RUN Sculpture outside Copper Box Arena.

This show is part of Walkie Talkies a festival of curious adventures from some of the UK's most exciting theatre artists in & around Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.

About Verity Standen:
