Katie Mitchell, Stephen Dillane, Miro Quartet, et al. Set for Lincoln Center’s NewVisions Series

Lincoln Center has announced the three productions that will be part of its NewVisions season.

The series will begin with the Donmar Warehouse production of T.S. Eliot’s Four Quartets, directed by Katie Mitchell and performed by Tony Award winner Stephen Dillane at Baryshnikov Arts Center, December 2-3. The evening will also feature the Miro Quartet’s performance of Beethoven’s late String Quartet in A minor, Op.132, which inspired Eliot’s work.

Mitchell and Dillane are also collaborators on One Evening, which is inspired by Samuel Beckett’s life-long love of Schubert’s music. Dillane will read Beckett’s text, newly translated by Michael Symmons Roberts, which will be interspersed with Schubert’s song-cycle Winterreise, performed by tenor Mark Padmore, accompanied by pianist Andrew West. The production will run December 9-11 at the Gerald W. Lynch Theater.

The final offering will be Stifters Dinge (Stifters’ Things), German director/composer Heiner Goebbels’ sonic performance landscape, inspired by the writings of 19th-century Austrian romantic novelist Adalbert Stifter. The piece will run at the Park Avenue Armory, December 16-20. The creative team will include Klaus Grünberg (set design, lighting, and video), Hubert Machnik (programming) and Willi Bopp (sound design).
