La Strada in Cowtown

In 2002, Tony Medlin, a guest director of the renowned, Hip Pocket Theatre, in Fort Worth, Texas, adapted Fellini's La Strada for the stage. He invited me to a rehearsal where I shared my insights into the characters and backstory of La Strada with the stage actors. I also provided facsimiles of some La Strada posters and photos from the archive to be used in the theatre "lobby". That collaboration led to interviews with the Fort Worth Star Telegram and the Dallas Morning News, who did articles on the archive and my fascination with all things Fellini. Both of those articles are reproduced here, along with other press reports. Read more about The Hip Pocket Theatre here:
