Not Robert Anton Wilson the writer, who passed away a couple decades ago, but Robert Wilson the playwright.

They don't hide 'em anymore. Cheaper these days to just come for the person who sez he sees 'em.

Robert Wilson had a powerful effect on other artists.

This documentary has some great sequences with Tom Waits: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxvRUBqV3jo

This was the most memorable bit for me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BxvRUBqV3jo#t=2902

Truly, one of the most original artists of our time. I am among those who think Einstein on the Beach is one of the greatest theatrical works of the twentieth century, but I don't think I ever saw a Wilson piece that didn't completely blow my mind.

I seem to recall an interview in which he said that he didn't think many of his works should be revived. I hope that's not true, and that his pieces have a long life in repertory.

Please don't respond to a bad comment by breaking the site guidelines yourself. That only makes things worse.

Could you please stop posting unsubstantive comments and flamebait? You've unfortunately been doing it repeatedly. It's not what this site is for, and destroys what it is for.

A couple of families recently told me that they showed or took their 9-to-10-year-old children to the Wilson staging of the Philip Glass opera Einstein on the Beach, and the kids were transfixed for the whole performance. I found it interesting how Wilson's staging seemed to make Glass's music so accessible.

I love Einstein on the Beach.

This interview with Robert Wilson is totally bonkers: https://youtu.be/sKFVorIvpAo?si=LbfQFK8-7OziqyUI&t=1322
