    Itamar Moses, Tony Award Winning Playwright, on the Art of Writing and his Latest Work, "An American Tale: The Musical"

    Itamar is an internally acclaimed screenwriter and playwright. An alumni of Yale and NYU Itamar has taught playwriting at both institutions. In 2018 Moses received the Tony Award for his work on The Band's Visit, based on the 2007 Israeli film of the same name which tells the story of a group of Egyptian musicians who get lost on their way to a concert in Israel, winding up in a small town in the center of the Israeli desert. Moses’s writing is not limited to musicals and has written for such shows as Men of a Certain Age and Boardwalk Empire. Now, Itamar is showcasing his latest work, an on-stage rendition of the kid's classic, "An American Tale, The Musical" at the Children's Theater Company in Minneapolis, MN.



    Whether it's for stage or screen, Itamar Moses continues his prodigious output of creativity, dazzling theater and living room audiences one script at a time.
