Bringing together performers, directors, playwrights, designers, choreographers, producers and behind-the-scenes personnel from the American and international theatre, the shows offer a rare opportunity for students and audiences to see the people who create theatre engaged in thoughtful conversation with one another. With more than 600 past guests, the shows have become an unequalled archive of theatrical talk, a chance to hear from the people behind the characters, stories and productions that draw us to the theatre.
The American Theatre Wing's Working in the Theatre receives leadership support from
The Annenberg Foundation
and
The Dorothy Strelsin Foundation.
Streaming video recordings of these shows, produced in partnership with CUNY TV, may be viewed here in Real Player format. |
