A six-day exploration of TS Eliot’s The Waste Land brings together a series of short performances to mark 100 years since the modernist masterpiece was first published
The festival will be hosted by 22 medieval churches in the City of London — the same areas that crop up in The Waste Land, and near to the bank at which Eliot worked while he was writing the poem.The events will, like the poem, be split up into five separate sections, referred to by organisers as “celebrations”. Each celebration will comprise a number of 15-minute performances , with 15-minute gaps in between them to allow festival-goers to walk between venues.
