Romeo Castellucci's Productions Challenge Western Theater at Festival d'Automne

Romeo Castellucci returned to Parisian stages with multiple productions during the Festival d'Automne in 2015. His staging of Arnold Schoenberg's opera 'Moïse et Aaron' was presented at the Opéra-Bastille. Castellucci also directed productions of 'Œdipe-Tyran' and 'l'Orestie' as part of the festival program. These works consistently examine the fundamental principles of Western theatrical representation. The productions engage with classical texts including Moses and Greek tragedy. The Festival d'Automne served as the platform for these theatrical interrogations. Castellucci's approach to direction continues to question established theatrical conventions. The productions were documented in artpress issue 426 from October 2015.
