Messiah

Work:: Messiah (S615343844)

Exploring the dramatic heart of Messiah, this acclaimed Bristol Old Vic production is a powerful dramatisation of Handel's profound masterpiece. See and hear Messiah as Handel controversially intended - performed for the people in a theatre, rather than in a sacred space.
