3-Day Weekend Producing Intensive Set for Snapple Center, 4/19-21

The Commercial Theater Institute's (CTI) 32nd annual 3-Day Weekend Producing Intensive will take place on April 19 - 21, 2013 at the Snapple Theater Center (210 West 50th Street). For the first time, the 3 day course will feature a concentration on the creative development process. Four new musicals currently in development and participants in previous NAMT (National Alliance of Musical Theatre) Festivals of New Musicals will be presented, followed by a discussion and analysis of their commercial creative potential.

The conference offers practical information of interest to prospective producers, general managers, and investors. Sessions consists of presentations and panel discussions with experienced producers, general managers, entertainment attorneys, press representatives, advertising and marketing directors, designers and more, all of whom offer specific case histories that explore the various methods of developing theatrical productions.

"The conference is open to anyone interested in producing, co-producing, or investing in the commercial theatre - Broadway, Off-Broadway, Touring Broadway and elsewhere," says CTI Executive Director Jed Bernstein. "This year's line-up is especially well-rounded, combining all of the cornerstone sessions with a focus on the creative development process. It is a terrific introduction to the entire CTI curriculum."
