Shaw Festival - 1989

Shaw Festival
Niagara on the Falls, Ontario
May 25-October 11, 1989

Director: Christopher Newton
Set: Eduard Kochergin
Music: Christohper Donison

Well, you've never seen a "Man and Superman" like this one. Kochergin's visual notions for the play are decidedly minimalist. They pay homage to the geometry of painters Rothko and Albers, with each of the four acts framed in squares and rectangles which diminish then increase in size with varying stage depth.
