They Do Not Move
In the Guardian (UK) today, I write about the parallels between
Dieter Dorn's production of Tristan und Isolde at the Met and one
of the most influential dramatists of the 20th century:
On the face of it, there couldn't be two more different theatre artists
than Richard Wagner and Samuel Beckett. Beckett himself cared very little
for Wagner. But Dieter Dorn's production of Tristan und Isolde,
recently restaged at New York's Metropolitan Opera, suggests there may be
more to the comparison than meets the eye.
The entire entry is available here.
