City of doll-houses
Monday, July 21, 2008  Send to a friend
One of those great cultural weekends, pretty much unique to London...
A strange mix of Japanese folklore, Noh theatre and a modern whodunnit served up in The Diver at the Soho Theatre, starring Kathryn Hunter... One too many swirling dream sequences for my tastes, but arresting and original nonetheless...
Then, to the Hayward Gallery on the south bank for Psycho Buildings, a fascinating exploration of spacial surroundings and our reaction to them - part of the iconic gallery's 40th birthday celebrations. Rachel Whiteread's doll-house town at night and the exploding building by Los Carpinteros particularly stick in the mind...
And then finally to the Curzon Soho to see the deeply disturbing Savage Grace starring Julianne Moore... Incest, identity and social climbing spun over four locations and 26 years... Perfect Sunday night fare.
