[rec.music.gaffa] KaTe/madonna connection

kyrlidis@athena.mit.EDU (Agathagelos Kyrlidis) (04/27/91)

This is my third attempt at posting this. Sorry if you have seen this before.
------------------
Well,

Kate Bush is mentioned several times in the article on Alek Keshishian, the
director of 'Truth or Dare', in the most recent Rolling Stone. This guy
did a pop opera performance piece based on 'Wuthering Heights' at Harvard,
and his work there was considered so good by Madonna, that she decided to hire
him for her movie. According to the article during the time when WH was 
performed at the American Repertory Theatre in Cambridge 'no Kate Bush records
could be found in the Boston area'. So he probably did a good job.

Has anybody seen this production, or is it available on video? Was there any 
discussion about it in 'gaffa' when it happened?

Thanks for any info,

Angelos
