Did you happen to record Monty Python’s Flying Circus
when it was shown on PBS back in the 1970s?
Do you still have the tapes?
Is there a TIME LIFE logo at the end?

THE WORKS OF TINTO BRASS

Lulù

(1991)

After completing Paprika Brass cast Debora Caprioglio as Lulù in Frank Wedekind’s Lulu: A Monster Tragedy. Wedekind was unable to publish or perform this play in his lifetime, and so instead toned it down and turned it into two other plays: Erdgeist (Earth Spirit, 1895) and Die Büchse der Pandora (Pandora’s Box, 1904). Brass’s production ran for seven months, apparently because Caprioglio played the rôle in the nude. I have no other details at all on the whens, wheres, or hows of this production. If you can fill me in, fill me in. Thanks!

Ah. A fan filled me in. Also in the cast: Paolo Lanza, Renzo Rinaldi, Claritta Zaniti Gatti, Rosa Pianeta.
