| | Culturebot.org: I Survived Richard Foreman (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11) |
 | | Recently, I came across a notebook I used while working with the inimitable Richard Foreman, the legendary theater maker and self-proclaimed “King of the Avant-Garde.” The incomprehensible instructions that follow are quoted exactly as I wrote them, in italics. |
 | | Foreman’s highly choreographed extravaganzas necessitate a parade of his favorite props and set pieces—strings, large pieces of cardboards, rubber balls decorated with nipples, phallic symbols, pastry, demonic babies—to be moved and delivered to the play’s stars at the master’s will. |
 | | Love him or hate him, Richard Foreman is indisputably a genius; an artist with the kind of focus and vision that comes along once in a generation. |
