art, direction, and design, with light and space
“This project was a labor of love. Having the opportunity, at Misha’s request, to re-imagine his seminal work, along with my inspirational collaborator, Vladimir Radunsky, was a touchstone in my career. Our concept referenced the wonder and mechanization of a pop-up storybook, and it added a new layer of lightness and amusement to the choreography. Sadly, we lost Vladimir not long after the premiere, but his tender illustrations live on in the architecture of our scenic world.”
