Production
It was directed by Alan Burke who later recalled he liked the opera "because it seemed to have visual opportunities and I thought it would work very well in television" being done in one set. He felt Menotti was "a poor man's Puccini... which is why the ABC was not all that keen to do it. But he is enormously effective theatrically. The Medium would make a wonderful movie score - so what better than to make a little television score with it? So we did that and pulled a few tricks - it led itself to very low key lighting."[1]
