I am very proud of the work we did at the Teatrul Naţional Craiova (Romania), near the birthplace of Eugène Ionesco . The actors were truly amazing, among the best I have ever worked with in my life!
It will play in repertory during the next year with plans for tours. Many of the young participants from The Watermill Center Summer Program 2013 were involved in this production. My assistant Julian Mommert together with Adi Bulboaca took these photos.

We premieredThe Coronation of Poppea at the Palais Garnier last night!
The scenery was operated beneath the stage with robs and wooden wheels that were designed by Garnier in 1876. The numerous technicians did a superb job for a very complex opera in 37 scenes and 3 1/2 hours long! BRAVO to them and all the performers.
The costumes by Jacques Reynauld are baroque in design and are stupendous. May it have a long life!
