Castelli previously offered his masterpieces in bronze, but now the French pantomimist is offering his work in white.
Three men, one woman and two dogs make up the company. Fourteen different poses were offered in the sixteen minutes on stage. The subjects were "Genius of Art," "Question," "The Hunter," "Midnight," "Awakening," "Age of Iron," "The Deluge," "Diana," "Victory," "The Rape of Sabiens," "Speak," "Wrestler" group and "The Fountain." In "Midnight," three of the four people are employed and in "The Fountain" the entire company supports a massive fountain. The dogs are used in "Speak" and "The Hunter."
Barring a few uncalled for long waits between poses, he has made a good job. "Midnight" and "The Fountain" are the best. One of the dog numbers should be eliminated.
