Institute History
Description
Einstein on the Beach is the brilliant 4 hour, uninterrupted “opera” by avant-garde director-designer Robert Wilson and new music composer Philip Glass. Described as a “shared dream,” the performance is blended beautifully with interviews introducing the theatrical and musical concepts. What emerges is a hauntingly exquisite collaboration which draws on the various disciplines of music, theater, design, dance and visual arts. It is absolutely spellbinding, a film to cherish for some time to come.

While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
