"This is the most personally involved I've been in a thing. It's taken over my life more than anything I've ever done before."

Ahead of In Clouds, a new immersive, collaborative piece of music theatre, premiering at Cork Midsummer, I talked to director and co-composer Peter Power and author Sara Baume about the work and what they're hoping to achieve with it.

Specially commissioned by Triskel Arts Centre and Cork Midsummer Festival to celebrate 40 years of Triskel, In Clouds blends original composition by Power and co-composer Michael Gallen, text by novelist Sara Baume, choral experimentation by the contemporary ensemble Tonnta led by Robbie Blake, choreography/dance by Stephanie Dufresne, and an audio visual installation by Sarah Jane Shiels and David MathĂșna.
