Upcoming episodes will feature topics on fundraising, producing for the commercial theatre, playwriting and how technology has changed designing for the theatre. Last month we sat down for a deep dive with national dramaturgy expert Lenora Inez Brown, author of two books on dramaturgy: “The Art of Active Dramaturgy” and “New Play Development” both available from HackettPublishing.com.
