The Beautiful Cosmos of Ivor Cutler is a musical and visual journey
based on the songs, stories and poems of one of Scotland ’s most iconic exiles. A Jewish,
Scottish, Londoner, Ivor Cutler was a wholehearted eccentric whose music and
words range from the whimsical to the disturbing; had he been born in Russia he'd
perhaps be a Danil Kharms or a Gogol. Here, Mr Cutler stands alone. A true
maverick, Ivor Cutler was the only artist to have been played on BBC Radios 1, 2, 3
and 4. He was signed by all the major record labels, influenced the Beatles and
was championed by John Peel. The
Beautiful Cosmos of Ivor Cutler weaves together the music, prose, poetry and
biography of Ivor Cutler to tell the story of a remarkable life, from birth,
through boyhood, to old age and death. Whether you are already a fan or want to
explore his music and life story for the first time, The Beautiful Cosmos celebrates the work of one of Scotland ’s truly unique artists in a
production by the ever inventive Vanishing Point in collaboration with the
National Theatre of Scotland.
