IN 1962,
MARLENE DIETRICH TOLD TSAR STEFAN ABOUT HER OPINON OF PRODUCERS :
*
"The extraordinary "creative" producer (creative in deference to the producer in name only) is a man who, after deciding on the work he wants to produce, chooses the ideal collaborators for each job in connection with the planned production. He then proceeds to interest these men and women in his plan and convince them of the necessity of their collaboration. Once they have agreed on the basic ideas, the producer leaves them alone so that they can create and use their talents to the fullest extent. The ordinary producer operates differently. Once the contracts have been signed, he imposes his ideas from the construction of the work to the casting, costuming, etc., and meddles in everybody's functions. He complains about the stubbornness, stupidity, the uncooperative spirit of his erstwhile heroes, who do not throw in the towel only because of their devotion to the cause and the job they feel compelled to finish!"
*
The Tsar adores live performance art! It inspires and excites him! The Theatre heightens and intensifies life for the Tsar! Music, Great Drama, Musical Theater, Cabaret, Kabarett, Performance Art, Opera, Dance, Burlesque, Vaudeville, Minstrel, Gypsy, Tribal, and Circus! AT IT'S BEST! There is nothing else like it in the world! RAPTURE! Life without music and theatre is unthinkable!
*
Now let us share the love and let the sunshine in! Give peace a chance! Power to the people! This is the 22nd century!
*
PEACE! LOVE! JOY! HAPPINESS! MUSIC! SONG!

It is a collection of memories, impressions, moments of joy, but also vulnerable moments of doubt and outrage. It moves between clearness and painful confusion, hope and despair about world issues but always wants to stay poetic in its thought and language."
Song titles include "Nevada," "Nomad," "September Mourn," "Greatest Ride," "Stranger Friend," "Wings of Desire," "Here Is Love," "Luna," "Ghosts of Berlin," "La Memoire et la Mer" and "Blood & Feathers." * Le Poisson Rouge is located in Manhattan at 158 Bleecker Street.
