"I realized that the job of dramaturgy isn’t to identify what’s wrong with plays & help fix them; rather the work was to encourage or inspire writers back to their desks, to embolden them to go the rest of the way..." –Todd London via @HowlRound bit.ly/3FhtMdE

Two events in November exploring the creative process - mailchi.mp/altnyc/102422
I am incredibly excited to share the @MooresOpera @UHouston 2022-23 season: LA BELLE ET LA BÊTE ( @philipglass / Jean Cocteau ); DIE FLEDERMAUS (Strauss Jr/Haffner&Genée); and the Houston premiere of AINADAMAR ( Osvaldo Golijov / @DavidHenryHwang ) uh.edu/news-events/st…
I was deeply honored to be asked to contribute to @lizlerman’s new book, Critique is Creative: The Critical Response Process in Theory and Action - an in depth study of CRP in the field. It is fascinating to see how artists in so many different disciplines work with CRP.
How wonderful to see the brilliant Stephanie Fleischmann acknowledged by @OPERAAmerica with the Campbell Opera Librettist Prize!

I’m very proud of this new initiative that we have just launched at ALT to increase access to contemporary arias for singers and educators alike!

A little glimpse from rehearsal of the fun we’ve been having at @vaopera - Making opera is particularly challenging right now, but so rewarding as we see audiences coming back into the theater!

We often look to Stephen Sondheim as a teacher at ALT, though he never stepped into our studio. His genius is a constant source of inspiration for composers & librettists alike, and his influence will be felt in both musical theater and opera for generations to come. RIP.
