CalArts, Tisch, and Yale Announce DESIGN MEETING 2010

The graduate theatre design programs at California Institute of the Arts (CalArts), Tisch School of the Arts at New York University, and Yale School of Drama will present the inaugural DESIGN MEETING at the Pope Auditorium at Fordham College at Lincoln Center (113 West 60th Street, New York), May 29-31, 2010. The event will be coordinated by John Coyne, Lecturer in Design at Yale School of Drama and Director at Theatre Projects Consultants, working with Christopher Barreca, Head of Scenic Design at CalArts, Susan Hilferty, Chair of Design at Tisch, and Stephen Strawbridge, Co-Chair of Design at Yale.

DESIGN MEETING 2010 serves as an introduction of graduating MFA Scenic, Costume, Lighting, and Sound Designers to the professional theatre community through a project gallery and portfolio presentation. The focus of the event will be on the dialogue between professional theatre directors, choreographers, and designers in a series of one-on-one conversations. The event will also promote an exchange of ideas among the graduating designers themselves.

The intention of the organizers is to establish DESIGN MEETING as an annual event. For more information about Design Meeting 2010, theatre professionals should contact John Coyne at 203-299-0830.
