David Schweizer (Director) has been directing original theatre, performance, and opera for over 25 years nationally and internationally, beginning with his radical adaptation of Troilus and Cressida at New York’s Lincoln Center and returning there this fall with Sir Richard Rodney Bennett's Mines of Sulphur for New York City Opera. His recent Off Broadway productions include Charles Mee’s Wintertime (Second Stage Theatre), William Hamilton’s White Chocolate (Century Center), Mark Campbell’s Songs From an Unmade Bed (New York Theatre Workshop), and Rinde Eckert’s OBIE Award-winning And God Created Great Whales (The Culture Project), which also toured and played at the Barbican Centre in London. Mr. Schweizer’s international residencies include Lisbon, Sarajevo, Prague, Toga Village-Japan, and Warsaw where his Peer Gynt is still running. Regionally he has staged works at Trinity Repertory Company, Arena Stage, Center Stage, Mark Taper Forum, Geffen Playhouse, McCarter Theatre, and many others. His collaborations with experimental companies include It’s A Man’s World (Mabou Mines), A History of Sexuality (Theatre X), and Plato’s Symposium with his own Modern Artists Company. Selected work with other solo theatre artists includes Ann Magnuson's Rave Mom and You Could Be Home Now, Sandra Tsing Loh's I Worry and Aliens in America, John Fleck’s Nothing Beats Pussy, Mike Albo's My Price Point, and earlier this season, Marga Gomez’ Los Big Names at the Magic Theatre, which will open in New York in April. His staging of Benjamin Britten's chamber opera Albert Herring just closed at Gotham Chamber Opera, and he will stage the world premiere of Stephen Hartke and Philip Littell's The Greater Good this summer at Glimmerglass Opera.
