Flat-e were commissioned by the Southbank Centre to create filmed set backdrops for a new performance of The Rime of the Ancient Mariner at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, London. The show runs from 27th Feb – 1st Mar 2010.

A new version of Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s eighteenth-century poem – a fantastical story of a man’s voyage through nature and his own mind – with music by Southbank Centre Artists in Residence Bellowhead, Lemn Sissay in the title role and a 150-strong community choir of children, teenagers and adults taking part in a performance billed as a ‘people’s opera.
