We at Music Theatre International are constantly looking for unique and educational resources to help you and your students get the most from your show. In this spirit, MTI ShowSpace has partnered with The Broadway League in an effort to introduce new experiences to enrich your theatrical activities. The Broadway League is responsible for a number of incredible programs, including Kids Night on Broadway and Family First Nights, as well as the Broadway Speakers Bureau.
The Broadway Speakers Bureau is a program that provides free Broadway career panel discussions to high schools and colleges across the country. The seminars share information about non-performance careers in the arts (producing, general management, marketing, press, stage management, etc.), and are an invaluable asset to students who would like to consider a career in theater, but perhaps aren't sure about how to get started. Past discussions have included professionals associated with many top Broadway shows including Wicked, Billy Elliot, Spring Awakening, Frost/Nixon, Legally Blonde, The Producers, Rent, and Grease.
Opportunities are available in a distance learning setting (via video conferencing) and for schools located in or planning a visit to Manhattan. If you would like more information, visit their website here.
