Guided by Artistic Director John Flax, in collaboration with the Ensemble, Grottesco creates a chorus of Samuel Beckett-like clowns who were there and know all too well, the story behind Shakespeare's play. Juxtaposing a poetic, bawdy and unexpectedly touching inarticulateness with Shakespeare's verbosity, and simmering it in breath-taking imagery, puppetry and dance, Theater Grottesco creates a visual and aural feast befitting a 12th Night Mediterranean celebration and 25 years of deeply moving theater. Grottesco's 12th Night: infusing the silly with the sublime.

Premiering at the Santa Fe Opera. September, 2008.
