The show is worth seeing for the cutting-edge visuals alone but, while it stylishly captures much of the theme and substance of the novel, it is lacking in emotional engagement – something that could also be said about Auster’s New York Trilogy.
Maury Yeston’s magnificent score for Death Takes A Holiday – one of the finest in London right now – is a glory not to be missed in this European premiere of one of his more extraordinary creations.
