There won't be a set. There will be only dim light on the stage. It will be modern dress. The actors will never look at each other. There will be no props. Probably cast of 8. And Norma Desmond will just revolve

and revolve and revolve. I for one am well over Lloyd, von Hve, and Icke.

Newt, you may want to check out some online clips (easily google-able) of the musicals he's done -- most notably EVITA at Regents Open Air . They're hardly "minimalist". But then I'm sure you already know that.

I do. Still recovering from A DOLLS HOUSE and CYRANO. Lloyd did another CYRANO in 2012 for Roundabout, starring Douglas Hodge and Clemence Poesy in Ranjot Bolt's translation - it bore a striking resemblance to the play that Rostand wrote!

I like Icke. I think he works from the text. Performances and design are usually in communication with it. I haven't loved everything he's done but his production have always had some kind richness and complexity.
