This sounds like one of those things that could either be a tangled-up and over-ambitious mess, or a ground-breaking 'I was there' kind of event. Here's rooting for the latter.
The Rain Emperor is a project by visual arts company Beggars Velvet that takes its inspiration from a series of rare scores by composer and musician Robert Jacob.
The project fuses performance, film, installation, music and theatre into a mysterious exploration of the elements, and, in particular, rain. There's a host of different people involved, including Scottee, the Elysian Quartet, Gerard Cousins and Jacob's daughter Judy.
The audience wander through dark vaults and passageways, catching glimpses of sound, of light, of movement. Where? Just over there - it's hard to be sure...
