YALE SCHOOL OF DRAMA AND YALE SCHOOL OF MUSIC ANNOUNCE THE YALE INSTITUTE FOR MUSIC THEATRE - JUNE 7-21, 2009
APPLICATIONS FOR TWO-WEEK WORKSHOP ACCEPTED NOVEMBER 19, 2008 THROUGH JANUARY 23, 2009
YALE SCHOOL OF DRAMA (James Bundy, Dean) and YALE SCHOOL OF MUSIC (Robert Blocker, Dean) announce the YALE INSTITUTE FOR MUSIC THEATRE.
Under the leadership of Artistic Director Mark Brokaw and Producer Beth Morrison, the YALE INSTITUTE FOR MUSIC THEATRE will select three original music theatre works to receive a two-week workshop in New Haven June 7-21, 2009.
Established by Yale School of Drama and Yale School of Music, the YALE INSTITUTE FOR MUSIC THEATRE seeks to identify distinctive and original music theatre works by emerging writers and composers, and to serve those writers by matching them with collaborators such as directors, music directors, and actors/singers who can help them further develop their work. By limiting production resources and values, the workshop will keep the focus on the creative process of the artistic team.
“We are delighted that Yale School of Drama and Yale School of Music are joining forces to nurture gifted young music theatre writers. The Yale Institute for Music Theatre supports their creative process by providing the writers with this developmental opportunity to hear and see their work interpreted in a professional environment including their peers in training here at the University,” Dean Robert Blocker and Dean James Bundy said in a joint statement. “We are very pleased that Mark Brokaw and Beth Morrison will provide such experienced leadership to this new endeavor as artistic director and producer of the Institute.”
