O.K. The Musical at Tate Liverpool, Waterfront 1 April — 1 May 2017 Entrance is free

For four weeks from 1 April 2017, the entire production of a musical will unfold at Tate Liverpool. Visitors to the gallery will be able to watch everything first hand – from the production of props and costumes, to set design and lighting – as residents of Liverpool and Lancashire come together to create, rehearse and finally perform O.K – The Musical. Conceived by American-born, Berlin-based artist Christopher Kline, this exhibition-cum-production will subvert spaces usually reserved for the likes of Picasso, Warhol and Emin. O.K – The Musical will restage the entire history and folklore of Kline’s home of Kinderhook in New York State with an original score by the artist.
