Astronome: A Night at the Opera
(2010)
Directed by Henry Hills
King Richard
(2004) Directed by Henry Hills
April 11 - Friday - 6:30 p.m.
Heralded as "the Godfather of the American avant-garde,"
Richard Foreman, founder of the Ontological-Hysteric
Theater, has been creating unique theatrical visions for over
45 years. Astronome: A Night at the Opera, his collaboration
with avant-garde composer John Zorn and documented by
filmmaker Henry Hills, presents "a disturbing initiation" that
is singular in Foreman's career, yet still bears the indelible
marks of Foreman's style. As a companion piece, Hills' own
King Richard is a revealing portrait of the artist, which is both
a charming interview and a filmic reflection of the theatrical
world Foreman has created. (HD Cam. 83 min. Not Rated.)
