Looking For My Memories Of Lepage Productions I Have Seen

... and this is the awful truth... that being elder.... the productions that I do see of Robert Lepage's work in London in the 1990s.... pre-date the wonders of web memories and clips. Now... I do feel elder.

.....And to try and explain the impact of "Midsummer Night's Dream" at the National Theatre... with a stage covered in a mud pool, Puck played by a contortionist and the front row audiences being issued with plastic macs against the splatter... (Did I just make that up?)

Or "Needles and Opium"  ... Cocteau, Miles Davis.... the wonders of stage illusion ...

Ah well go and Google around and you will find much more stuff that is more up to date.....
Than me.
