Choreographer Aletta Collins has collaborated with director Tom Cairns for a new production entitled Cocteau Voices - Duet for One and La Voix Humaine. Aletta and Tom join Sean in studio to discuss this double bill commissioned by ROH2. It presents two contrasting dramatic pieces in two different artforms: one dance, one opera.
