The Seven Ages of Musicals: Our Time in the Theater

Our Musical Theater Project this year offers you a unique opportunity to collaborate with artists from around the world, including Leslie Stifelman, music director and conductor for Broadway’s hit musical Chicago, and Roger Rees, Tony Award winning actor and co-director of Peter and the Starcatcher, in the creation of a brand new online musical.

The Seven Ages of Musicals works through every pivotal moment encountered when writing a show. From Shakespeare to Sondheim, each month you can choose from quintessential songs and dramatic monologues that examine those touchstone elements of a musical.

You choose! You perform! And, from your uploaded video submissions we’ll choose the best student work and weave together a theatrical piece that represents the spirit of Our Time in this exciting musical theater community of ours. And the end will remain a mystery until we write it! We will be inviting many of our famous friends and colleagues from the Broadway community to help you along the way, giving you valuable insights and unique perspective into how to create a musical.
