By:

Directors Lab West Steering Committee has announced the dates for the 13th annual Directors Lab West. The 2012 Lab will take place May 19-26 in residence at Pasadena Playhouse. The Lab will continue its tradition of bringing together dedicated theatre directors, choreographers and master artists for a week of intense discussions and exploration of the art form.

Attendance is by application only, and there is no cost to participate in the Lab. Applications and further information may be found at: www.directorslabwest.com. Deadline for receipt of applications is Friday, March 30 at 5:00pm.

Directors Lab West, which was launched in 2000, seeks theatre directors and choreographers to participate in a week-long series of workshops, panels, roundtables, and symposia with some of the nation’s leading theatre artists. Directors Lab West, like its New York inspiration at Lincoln Center Theater, creates an intensive laboratory environment where theatre directors come together to inspire, educate, and challenge each other. Over the last 12 years, more than100 acclaimed artists have given their time to the Lab, including Gordon Davidson, Ming Cho Lee, Cirque Berzerk, George Furth, Randy Newman, Stephen Wadsworth, Charlayne Woodard, Kay Cole, Paris Barclay, and Vincent Paterson, among many others.
