The collaboration will include not just theatre performances connected to the Sundance Institute Theatre Program but also film screenings, music performances, panel discussions and special events. The line-up is to be announced. According to press notes, "The program is designed to stimulate dialogue between artists and audiences and to provide insight into the creative-and practical-processes of filmmakers, playwrights and composers."
The Sundance Institute Theatre Program runs a summer theatre lab in Sundance, UT, and a winter lab in Florida. Some of the past projects that have been supported by the program include The Laramie Project, Yellowman, Grey Gardens, Spring Awakening and I Am My Own Wife.
The program will take place in the Brooklyn Academy of Music's Peter Jay Sharp Building at 30 Lafayette Avenue in Brooklyn. For more information visit www.bam.org or www.sundance.org.
