Abstract

The American Theatre is undergoing a renaissance of new work. More new plays are being written than can be produced, both in New York and around the country; multiple new ways of expression are being found utilizing new technologies and interactive performance techniques. But unless realized in a production, these plays are destined to become overlooked. How does a new play make an impact upon the culture today in these difficult economic times? There is a need for Creative Producers skilled in dramaturgy, to nurture and develop these projects from the very beginning and bring them to life. Creative Producers can bring to fruition the voices and images that accurately reflect our American experience at the beginning of the twenty-first century and secure their future in the American theatrical canon for posterity. | 74 pages
