Coming Up Big in a Tiny Space — The Castleton Festival Stages 'Turn of the Screw'

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/07/05/AR2009070502601.html?hpid=artsliving

By Anne Midgette [Washington Post, 6 July 2009]

A “home theater” for Maazel denotes not a private movie screen but an honest-to-goodness stage, orchestra pit and two levels of audience seating.
