2006.12.3. Cornish College of the Arts' Peer Gynt project at Ned & Kayla Skinner Theater.
Part I: Norway and the Troll Kingdom, directed by Sheila Daniels. The play ran a bit less than 2 hours, ending at Gynt's departure after his mother's death. Peer Gynt was portraited by three students (one of whom is a girl), often at the same time. Quite nice songs and simple dances. No stage sets, primitive costumes.
Part II: The Sphinx and the Onion, directed by Robert Leigh. No stage, no costume, chaotic. The kids tried to be comic, only made things harder to understand. Less clearly articulated. Ran for 3 hours, with Gynt's reminiscence of his past as in Part I.
