Summary "Turn your head around and think how can you make it happen! Do nothing else but that! Make it happen!" is Robert Wilson's lifelong motto. After more than several decades of living out of a suitcase, Wilson decides to return to his roots. Seeing potential in an aging science laboratory long abandoned and condemned in Long Island, Robert Wilson and a handful of artists as his crew, build their own laboratory for the arts: The Watermill Center. The road to "The Watermill Center" begins in 1960 when Robert Wilson left his hometown of Waco, Texas for New York City and formed "The Byrd Hoffman School of Byrds," a ragtag group of artists, teachers, children, elderly and entrepreneurs that met and created some of the 20th century's most impressive works for the stage and performance arts. After rising to fame, Wilson had to relinquish the less formal arts group and embarked on an international stage career that created such works as the Black Rider, The Civil Wars and the opera that started it all, Einstein on the Beach. With newly restored archival footage, in depth rehearsal footage and original high-definition footage of workshops and meetings, Robert Wilson In Situ follows the story of Robert Wilson 'in house' during the triumphs and set backs of building the center, his monument.
