Pierre Rigal

Inspired by iconic images of twentieth-century rock stars, Frenchman Pierre Rigal is presenting Micro, a physical concert, at the Gate Theatre till May 8th.

Here's what they say:

Cymbals storm the stage, a pair of drums fall in love, two musicians tussle to play the same guitar. MICRO combines the raw power of live music with the delicate beauty of theatre and dance to create an electrifying physical concert that defies classification.

Following the sell-out success of PRESS, Pierre Rigal returns to Notting Hill to transform the Gate into a renegade rock venue.

Here's what our performance buff Eleanor Sikorski says:

When the four multi-tasking musicians appear and they haphazardly begin to play, the sound is dense, rhythmical, racing and enchanting. It is indeed a concert, a rich and varied one and I am satisfied.This show is not just about the music but also how the music is created - the physical part of the 'physical concert'. However, it is here that the screws of the performance become loose.
