Timeline
"'Mr. Leveaux, the British director of the exquisite-looking Broadway productions of 'Nine' and 'Jumpers,' does pretty better than most of his peers, which is his blessing and his curse. (Even 'Fiddler on the Roof,' in his hands, suggested a Vogue layout on Shtetl Chic.) He also has a strong sentimental streak, tempered by his aesthetic sense. He is the perfect man to bring 'Cyrano' into the 21st century, presenting the play's flowery sensibility without making audiences feel they’ve been doused in perfume.'"
David Leveaux (born 13 December 1957) is a British theatre director who has been nominated for five Tony Awards as director of both plays and musicals.
He directs in the UK, working at the Royal Shakespeare Company, the Almeida Theatre, and the Donmar Warehouse, on Broadway, and also in Tokyo.

In 2005, Leveaux was in an altercation with New York Post columnist Michael Riedel at the Manhattan restaurant and theatre hangout, Angus McIndoe.
Riedel, who later admitted to being "tipsy", insulted Leveaux by claiming that English directors often ruin classic American musicals.
While rumours circulated that Leveaux hit Riedel so hard that the columnist had to go to the emergency room, the truth is that Riedel was merely shoved to the floor and was not injured.
