I totally agree with Thomas Moore.

28th indeed.

I couldn’t watch it — too expressively read — turned it off, as much as I admire much of Robert Wilson’s work.

Be well.

About to begin- but it just occurred to me: 18th anniversary? No. 28th...

Best wishes to all,

Robert Wilson performs John Cage’s ‘Lecture on Nothing’
Wednesday, August 12 at 6PM | FREE

National Sawdust presents Robert Wilson performing John Cage’s ‘Lecture on Nothing’
Our friends at National Sawdust stream a special event with the celebrated playwright, stage director, and performer Robert Wilson. For over fifty years, Wilson has been on the vanguard of experimental stage work, building an awe-inspiring set of landmark artistic collaborations with luminaries Philip Glass, Mikhail Baryshnikov, Lou Reed, Allen Ginsberg, and Tom Waits, among others. For this exceptional presentation — scheduled on the eighteenth anniversary of the passing of John Cage — Wilson will present an appreciation of the revolutionary composer with a solo performance of his famed 'Lecture on Nothing’.

"All I know about method, is that when I am not working, I sometimes think I know something, but when I am working, it is quite clear that I know nothing.”
— John Cage
