Trisha leads opera a merry dance

Article Abstract:

Producing Claudio Monteverdi's opera 'Orfeo' was an extremely enjoyable experience, according to choreographer Trisha Brown. She sees herself as an abstract choreographer, an approach that gives her a great deal of freedom. She first came into contact with opera when she collaborated on a production of 'Carmen' in 1986, and has had a strong desire to direct an opera since then. Indeed, much of her recent dance work can be regarded as a preparation for directing an opera.

Alexandre the Great: what a hair-stylist

Article Abstract:

Hairdresser Alexandre de Paris believes that he became very popular among celebrities because he never revealed any secrets he heard about them. He is now 75 years old, and has officially retired, although he still works personally for designer Thierry Mugler. He has no regrets about his career, and feels that he has styled the hair of all the women for whom he would have like to have worked. He is planning an exhibition about his career in Paris, France, in 1999.

Paloma's return

Article Abstract:

Travelling a great deal can be very tiring, and those who do so can find it hard to relax, according to Paloma Picasso. She used to travel extensively, but is now trying to cut down her schedule and spend more time at her home in London, England. She finds that an individual's privacy is respected in London, which is not the case in some other big cities. She is soon to launch a new perfume, Tentations, in the UK.
