Peter Sellars

This absurd camp cunt is the poster boy for the old Bernard Manning gag:

“I saw this wanker at a bar in Leicester showing of his new haircut”
“I said to him you should be wearing a pair of knickers on that. That haircut – your barber’s cut it like a cunt”

Sellars is a yank theatre and opera director who is considered somewhat “out there” by the pooftahs and face jobbed old cadavers that make up the artsy New Yorker elite. The cunt’s stock in trade is to set established productions in “cutting edge” locations. “Othello? Hey guys let’s drown Desdemona in a Hollywood swimming pool. So Sunset Boulevard. We could have a chorus of rent boys fart underwater. Cool or what?”

You get me drift.
