Alice in Wonderland meets Edward Scissorhands in the avant garde costuming created by 4-time Tony-Award winner Catherine Zuber for the NY Philharmonic's production of Le Grand Macabre, which runs May 27 through 29 at Lincoln Center's Avery Fisher Hall.
In this absurdist, Bacchanalian tale of the last night on earth, Zuber dresses an array of wild, hard-partying characters (see attached costume sketches), including Nekrotzar (devil/villain), Amanda and Amando, Piet the Pot and Astradamors.Zuber received Tonys for costume design for South Pacific, The Coast of Utopia, The Light in the Piazza and Awake and Sing!Videos
