NYC and Philadelphia, here I come!

America beckons me: next week, I'm off to New York for meetings with designer Nick Vaughan to plan our new production of Britten's Turn of the Screw, which opens this year's inaugural Castleton Festival, conducted by the festival artistic director, Maestro Lorin Maazel. I'll also be meeting with the excellent Mr. Doug Beck - the Chateauville Executive Director to talk more about the festival.

Follow this link to the Castleton Website where you can find details of next year's inaugural CASTLETON FESTIVAL which will this year be presenting four of my productions, the new Turn of the Screw and revivals of my productions of Albert Herring, Rape of Lucretia and The Beggar's Opera:
