Creating Musical Theatre

Conversations with Broadway Directors and Choreographers

About this book

Creating Musical Theatre features interviews with the directors and choreographers that make up today's Broadway elite. From Susan Stroman and Kathleen Marshall to newcomers Andy Blankenbuehler and Christopher Gattelli, this book features twelve creative artists, mostly director/choreographers, many of whom have also crossed over into film and television, opera and ballet. To the researcher, this book will deliver specific information on how these artists work; for the performer, it will serve as insight into exactly what these artists are looking for in the audition process and the rehearsal environment; and for the director/choreographer, this book will serve as an inspiration detailing each artist's pursuit of his or her dream and the path to success, offering new insight and a deeper understanding of Broadway today. Creating Musical Theatre includes a foreword by four-time Tony nominee Kelli O'Hara, one of the most elegant and talented leading ladies gracing the Broadway and concert stage today, as well as interviews with award-winning directors and choreographers, including: Rob Ashford ( How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying ); Andy Blankenbuehler ( In the Heights ); Jeff Calhoun ( Newsies ); Warren Carlyle ( Follies ); Christopher Gattelli ( Newsies ); Kathleen Marshall ( Anything Goes ); Jerry Mitchell ( Legally Blonde ); Casey Nicholaw ( The Book of Mormon ); Randy Skinner ( White Christmas ); Susan Stroman ( The Scottsboro Boys ); Sergio Trujillo ( Jersey Boys ); and Anthony Van Laast ( Sister Act ).
