The Durham University Classical Ensemble performs Mendelssohn’s thrilling Oratorio, Elijah. With a full chorus and both professional and student soloists, DUCE tells the story of Elijah’s life.

This incredible work, premiered in Birmingham in 1846, combines the grandeur of Bach and Handel’s Baroque Oratorios with the emotional and expressive qualities of the early-romantic era. It is an excellent display of Mendelssohn’s idiosyncratic blend of counterpoint and romantic lyricism.

The piece recounts episodes of the Old Testament Prophet’s life, including the resurrection of a dead child, the contest of the Gods, Baal and Jehovah, his persecution by Queen Jezebel and his ascension to heaven. It promises to be a fantastic evening and we look forward to seeing you there.

Volunteers Tristan and Connie bond during a depression drug trial. As researchers track their dopamine, the pair wonder if their growing connection is genuine affection or merely chemically induced feelings.

Fourth Wall presents Lucy Prebble’s 'The Effect', a sharp, moving drama set in an antidepressant drug trial. Tristan, charming and impulsive, meets Connie, analytical and cautious, and their unexpected attraction intensifies as the medication boosts their dopamine. They question whether their feelings are real or chemically driven. Overseeing them are Dr. James, compassionate yet struggling with her own depression, and Toby, ambitious and convinced of neuroscience’s power.

As professional boundaries blur, the play probes love, mental health, and scientific ethics. Dancing between humor and tension, ‘The Effect’ invites audiences to consider how human connection is shaped by biology and belief.
