George Coates interview (1991)
Bettina Gray interviews theater director George Coates about the part imagination plays in his multi-media productions. For over 2 decades Coates and his many collaborators staged the largest scale experimental music theater ever produced in San Francisco. At the time of the interview, Coates had been presenting "The Architecture of Catastrophic Change" for several months (at an attendance record unheard of for an avant-garde production). The company (George Coates Performance Works) would continue to produce major shows for another ten years utilizing 3D computer graphics, internet imagery and other breakthrough techniques.
