The 8 PM event, according to press notes, focuses on "the fresh approach that composers have recently introduced to Broadway, attracting audiences through a new range of media, from YouTube to MTV."
The panel comprises Tony-winning Spring Awakening composer Duncan Sheik, Tony-winning In the Heights creator and star Lin-Manuel Miranda, "Hairspray" film director Adam Shankman, Tony-winning Legally Blonde director-choreographer Jerry Mitchell and original Rent star Anthony Rapp.
Both Sheik and Rapp are scheduled to perform.
An exclusive afterparty at The Russian Team Room will follow at 9:30 PM. The evening is created by The Notables, Carnegie Hall's membership program for music enthusiasts in their twenties and thirties.
Best known for her work on "Saturday Night Live," Ana Gasteyer has appeared on Broadway in Wicked, The Threepenny Opera and The Rocky Horror Show and Off-Broadway in The Vagina Monologues and Kimberly Akimbo.

Her screen credits include "Reefer Madness," "Mean Girls," "What Women Want," "Woman on Top," "Dick" and "What's the Worst That Could Happen?"
