Creating Musical Theater: A Collaborative Lab
GRoW
GRoW @ The Wallis presents
Sep 1, 2017 - Mar 30, 2018
GRoW @ The Wallis is pleased to offer a unique opportunity for creative teams developing new musicals to receive intensive coaching to take a project they have started to the next level. The program is intended for emerging artists who have not yet had their work produced in a professional setting. Three teams have been selected for the 2017-2018 program. Coaching sessions will take place at The Wallis Tuesday evenings from 7:30 – 9:30pm from September, 2017 – March, 2018. One team will attend each week and receive personalized coaching to further develop their show. In between their coaching sessions, the creative teams will be expected to continue to refine their work.
Several actors will be selected to perform the new musicals and assist in the development process. This may include table reads, scene work in class, and a staged reading at The Wallis for selected portions of each show. Legendary Broadway composer Stephen Schwartz will be invited to visit the class to provide feedback for each of the shows in development. A showcase performance of portions of each show will be presented in the Lovelace Studio Theater on March 18th, 2018.
