Director Robert McQueen scored a huge success in December with the premiere of Where Elephants Weep in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.   Where Elephants Weep was created by Cambodian music composer Him Sophy, Franco-American librettist Catherine Filloux and U.S. executive producer John Burt. McQueen met the team in Phnom Penh in 2003 while he was travelling in Asia, but the production didn’t get staged until 2008.  Where Elephants Weep is Cambodia’s first rock opera and blends rock music with the sounds of its traditional instruments.   Robert McQueen is known to Canadian audiences from his ground breaking production of Mozart’s The Magic Flute, set among British Columbia’s native people, for Vancouver Opera.  From Pnom Penh, McQueen heads to the Galaxy Theatre in Tokyo where he will stage Carousel.
