A Letter for Queen Victoria: An Opera (Original poster for the 1975 opera)

by Robert Wilson (director)

  • Used
La Rochelle, France, 1975. Original poster for the 1975 stream-of-consciousness opera directed by Robert Wilson, for its debut in La Rochelle, France in 1975.

Known for his deep concern for the use of language in his work, this piece is characteristic of Wilson's explicit attention to detail. In the play, the drop behind the set is completely covered in words printed in capital letters, and the actors speak frequently in chaotic instances of phonetic wordplay.

39.5 x 27 inches, rolled. A few edge creases and short closed tears at the extremities, else Fine.
