| An Emotional Landscape
Although props occasionally dot the stage � a bed rolls in and out, a turquoise sheet doubles as the sea, a severed arm becomes a weapon � Heather Carson's wildly imaginative lighting and Andrea J. Cox's terrifying soundscape marked most scene changes. |
| "My goal is to separate out light as subject. Drawing inspiration from contemporary physics, deconstructivist architecture, minimalism in sculpture--rather than literature--to think about structures for light, I have sought to create light as a visceral, active presence that has its own logic and structure, co-existing with the action, often in conflict, not there simply to better 'see' what is happening onstage. Wanting to go further, I have started making my own work." |

| Christopher Alden's ingeniously fluid staging is so integral to the work's success that his name should be emblazoned alongside the composer's and librettist's. Heather Carson's lighting and the austere set creations of Paul Steinberg contribute to the work's gripping visual impact in no small way.- Review - Harvey Milk |
