Perhaps more interesting was the reconstruction of a Curtis stage show from 1911, The Indian Picture Opera (2006).
ReplyDeleteA contemporary version of it was released on DVD and can be searched on Amazon.
Original music was recreated, and combined with 36 minutes of E.S. Curtis narration. The production reveals Curtis's interpretation and demeanor from the era.
It's thought provoking, and discussion provoking.
thanks for posting!
