People Are Talking [and Video Booth]: Einstein on the Beach at Power Center:
I remember studying “Einstein at the Beach” at univeristy in 1996 as part of a music degree. I thought I would never see a live performance of “Einstein” in my life…..well after 16 years, three plane flights(I am from Perth, Australia), accross three time zones and two continents and an overnight bus trip to Ann Arbor, I finally saw a performance on Saturday night and what a performance! It was truly the highlight of my trip. Kudos to Messers Wilson and Glass and Ms Childs for collaborating to create a work of art that truly captures the mystery and allusion of the Albert Einstien.
