After discovering that John Milton is buried within London's Barbican grounds, Iain Forsyth & Jane Pollard reimagined his epic poem ‘Paradise Lost’ as part of Doug Aitken's Station to Station project. The piece uses the architecture and atmosphere of the Barbican to update the story, which is told in three parts. It stars siblings Florence Pugh (The Falling) and Toby Sebastian (Game of Thrones), Sean Harris (Macbeth) and features Black Flag front man Henry Rollins as the voice of God.
