About This Event

Our Eyes Looking for God is an opera that will be performed at the Theatre, Leeds School of Arts on 5 November 2026. The production tells a story of two cousins, Adjani and Kamal, during a pivotal night out, blending themes of joy and struggle. This event is part of the Leeds New Opera Festival.

An opera. A ghost story. A love story. Black boy joy and Black boy nightmares. Cousins Adjani and Kamal are driving to a party on Adjani's last night in Toxteth. They laugh, tell stories, clash, dream, and wonder what the future will bring. Two ordinary boys with extraordinary souls, on an ordinary night out that will resonate across history.

Our Eyes Looking for God combines the unique talents of writer/director TD Moyo, composer Renell Shaw, librettist April Koyejo-Audiger, movement director Matheus Daniel, musical director Luke Bacchus and designer Amanda Mascarenhas to create a genre-mashing new opera that sings out the story of young lives rooted in British communities today.

Leeds New Opera Festival runs across the 5 and 7 November 2026 - check theLeeds New Opera Festival webpage for full details of our exciting programme and how you can join us.
