April 2, 2007 - The Living Room for Artists Inc / Summer Play Festival (SPF) and The Mayor’s Office of Film, Theatre, and Broadcasting (MOFTB) will present its first panel of 2007 – a case study examining the Broadway hit, “Grey Gardens: The Musical” - on Saturday, April 14. Titled “Grey Gardens: The Creation of a Musical”, the panel is designed to examine the development process of a musical, from its origins off-Broadway, to its opening night on Broadway. The panel will be moderated by Katherine Oliver, Commissioner of the Mayor's Office of Film, Theatre and Broadcasting. Panelists include Michael Greif (Director), Randall Wreghitt (Producer), Scott Frankel (Music), Michael Korie (Lyrics), and Christie Evangelisto (Director of Musical Theater Programming, Playwrights Horizons). The free panel will take place on April 14 from 10:00am-11:30am, at the Acorn Theatre at Theatre Row, at 410 West 42nd Street (between 9th and 10th Avenues). Guests should RSVP to message@film.nyc.gov by April 12. This panel is the fifth in a series addressing careers in theatre management, theatrical production and support, and acting. "New York City is the proud home of the finest creative minds in the theatre world," said Katherine Oliver, Commissioner of the Mayor's Office of Film, Theatre and Broadcasting. "Producers choose to start their shows in New York because of our rich and talented entertainment community, including creators who work in both theatre and film and television. This panel will address how artistic minds seek to showcase the words of playwrights on stage, which contributes so greatly to our local culture and economy." Under founder Arielle Tepper Madover (a producer of Broadway’s Frost/Nixon, Monty Python's Spamalot, The Pillowman, A Raisin in The Sun, and Freak), the non-profit organization The Living Room for Artists Inc./Summer Play Festival provides emerging writers, directors, designers and producers an opportunity to work on their material and their craft in a protected environment, guided by established professionals at no cost to them. The festival takes place from July 10 to August 5 at Theatre Row on 42nd Street. Tickets to all SPF shows are $10 each.   Christine Ebersole stars as both Big Edie and Little Edie Bouvier in "Grey Gardens" |  |
