Award winning theatre company, Les Enfants Terribles create a funeral inspired experience featuring wonderfully macabre performances, live music, DJs, bar and a late night opening of the exhibition.

All Late at the Library ticket holders are also invited to attend an early evening launch of new book The Art of Gothic (Omnibus Press) with a talk by author Natasha Scharf. This will be a comprehensive, highly illustrated overview of gothic style - from fashion to album covers and cinematography to computer graphics. The talk will take place in the British Library Conference Centre at 18.30.
