MTT: "New Musicals: NAMT & NYMF"

by Trish Causey

This morning, I interviewed Kathy Evans, Executive Director of the National Alliance for Musical Theatre, and Isaac Hurwitz, Executive Director of the New York Musical Theatre Festival.

We talked about the services their companies provide as well as the process of getting a show presented at NAMT & NYMF. Kathy and Isaac spoke to the emerging trends they see in the new musicals that participate in their festivals. The shows that play at NAMT & NYMF are great indicators for the shows that will be on Broadway in the next three to five years.

You can still hear the amazing show I did with guests, Joanna Cazden and Starr Cookman, on the topic of "Vocal Health & Disorders."

Coming up December 20, 2009, I'll talk with Howard Sherman and Lucie Arnaz with The American Theatre Wing. And in January 2010, I will be doing shows on "Breathing Support Techniques" and "Ear-Nose-Throat Issues for Singers."
