New Works Roundtable 2018
Local Matters
July 19 - 20
Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN
NAMT is heading to the Twin Cities for the 2018 New Works Roundtable! In between opening night for Ordway Center for the Performing Arts’ Mamma Mia and Theater Latté Da’s NEXT Festival, NAMT members and Festival alumni will spend a day discussing new musical development.
This year at the New Works Roundtable we will examine best practices to cultivate new musicals in your community. With an eye towards new work development, we’ll explore ways to foster local talent and build community among local artists; discuss case studies on building regional new work development programs; and share ways to maximize local partnerships and engage your communities.
