Directors Pam MacKinnon, Lynne Meadow & Susan Stroman Set for 'OUR TURN' Talk at 92Y Today
By: BWW News Desk May. 25, 2016
Cultural commentator and journalist Lisa Birnbach hosts a conversation with three of Broadway's most dynamic and influential directors... who happen to be women today, Wednesday, May 25, 2016.
The event, "OUR TURN: Women Directing Broadway," features Pam MacKinnon, Lynne Meadow, Susan Stroman, and takes place at 7:30 pm at 92nd Street Y.
Join artistic director of the Manhattan Theatre Club and award winner Lynne Meadow, Tony award winning director and choreographer Susan Stroman and Pam MacKinnon, Tony Award and Drama Desk winner, to hear how they broke through the velvet curtain and became sought-after directors on Broadway, and elsewhere.
The "Great White Way" has historically been dominated by men. In 2004, only two new plays were directed by women. By 2013, women won both Tony awards for directing.
92nd Street Y's Buttenweiser Hall is located at 1395 Lexington Avenue at 92nd Street, New York, NY 10128. Call 212-415-5500 or visit www.92y.org/Event/Our-Turn-Women-Directing-Broadway for more information. Tickets from $32 (for those 35 and under, tickets are $15).
