JAY SCHEIBDirectorJay Scheib is a director and author and adapter of plays, operas, ballets and hybrid live art performance events . Known for genre-defying works of daring physicality and the integration of new technologies in live performance, Scheib is the recipient of both a Guggenheim and an Obie Award for Direction . Garnering rave reviews and accolades internationally, Scheib’s production of Thomas Adès’ opera Powder her Face for New York City Opera at BAM was called “dazzling,” by Anthony Tommasini of the New York Times . Of Scheib’s Fassbinder adaptation “World of Wires,” which premiered at The Kitchen in New York followed by an international tour, Ben Brantley of The New York Times hailed the production for its “revved-up young ensemble that exudes a real-life, in-the-moment, hormone-popping glow…” Other recent works include new stagings of two operas by Giorgos Kouroupou, Pylades and Jocasta for the Athens Festival in Greece; an original opera adaptation of Bergman’s Persona with composer Keeril Makan which premiered in New York followed by performances at the Gardner Museum in Boston; Luigi Nono’s No hay camino hay que caminar as ouverture to Monteverdi’s Il Ritorno d’Ulisse under the title “Odyssee .” Scheib’s new staging opened the season of the newly restructured Staatstheater Darmstadt in Germany and played to sold out houses with two extended runs; and the multiplatform staging Platonov, or the Disinherited, premiered as part of the Without Walls Festival at La Jolla Playhouse followed by a three week run at The Kitchen in New York City . Conceived as a 100 minute, single-take feature film, Scheib’s adaptation of

Chekhov’s play was broadcast live from The Kitchen as a feature film to the AMC Empire 25 Cinema in Times Square and to BAM Rose Cinema in Brooklyn . Named Best New York Theater Director by Time Out New York in 2009, and one of the 25 theater artists shaping the next 25 years of American theater, by American Theater Magazine, Scheib is also the recipient of the MIT Edgerton Award, The Richard Sherwood Award, and the prestigious National Endowment for the Arts/TCG program for directors . Scheib holds a Master of Fine Arts degree in Direction from Columbia University School of the Arts and currently holds a Professorship for Music and Theater Arts at Massachusetts Institute of Technology where he directs the program in Theater Arts . Scheib would like to say a special thank you to Laine Rettmer for all the love and support .
