EXCLUSIVE: CAA has signed Tony and Olivier-Award winning director Ivo van Hove in all areas.
Belgian-born van Hove has built a reputation for experimental revisions of Hollywood and Broadway classics including Broadway revival productions of Arthur Miller’s A View from the Bridge, for which he received a Tony Award and a Laurence Olivier Award, and The Crucible as well as Lee Hall’s Network (starring Bryan Cranston and Tatiana Maslany), All About Eve (with Gillian Anderson in the Bette Davis role) and Stephen Sondheim’s West Side Story.
Last year, van Hove teamed with John Wells to develop Doll at Warner Bros. Television. The project is described as a psychological thriller series set in the ruthless world of a modern music conservatory. The former’s artistic collaborator, Jan Versweyveld, was set to serve as production and lighting designer on the project, which marks the duo’s first foray into scripted television.
The director’s stage work also includes adaptations of Hanya Yanagihara’s A Little Life, David Bowie’s Lazarus, Ayn Rand’s The Fountainhead, and John Cassavetes’ Opening Night. He made his Metropolitan Opera debut last year with a critically-acclaimed production of Don Giovanni.
Based in Amsterdam, van Hove has served as the director of International Theater Amsterdam since 2001 and has been an artistic leader of the Dramatic Arts department of the University College Antwerp since 1984.
Other recognitions include two Obie Awards, the East Flanders Oeuvre Prize, the Theatre Festival Prize, the Archangel Award at the Edinburgh Festival, the Chevalier dans l’Ordre des Arts et des Lettres in France, and the Prijs van de Kritiek in the Netherlands.
