Orf '86 Norman MacAfee Scene4 Magazine



December 2013

A mythologized documentary of a production of Gluck’s Orfeo ed Euridice in 1986 in NYC. MacAfee was learning how to direct and was assistant director on it.

(It is part of a new book, “The Re-Creation of the New World,” which he just completed.)
