Director Graham Eatough and artist Stephen Sutcliffe pay suitably ingenious tribute to one of Manchester’s most original minds in this unique installation, which blends visual art and film drama in homage to the great Anthony Burgess.
About
No End to Enderby is centred on two new films inspired by Burgess’s ‘Enderby’ series: Inside Mr Enderby, in which a school trip travels back in time to pay desultory homage to the title character, a dead poet; and The Muse, in which a young historian journeys to a parallel universe to investigate whether Shakespeare really wrote everything credited to him. Presented here with some of the original sets for the films, both shot this year in Manchester, No End to Enderby explores issues of artistry, authenticity and posterity in a playful fashion of which Burgess would surely have approved.
