The Dramatists Guild Fund has made a series of interviews between prominent and promising playwrights, composers, lyricists, and librettists, available online for free. The interviews, featuring artists such as Larry Kramer, Lisa Kron, Tony Kushner, Alan Menken, Kristen Anderson-Lopez, and James Lapine, were filmed as part of the Legacy Project Volume III.

Created by The Dramatists Guild Fund in 2009 and conceived by playwright Jonathan Reynolds, The Legacy Project documents and preserves the creative process of dramatists in a series of filmed conversations. Watch some of them below:

The Legacy Project Volume III conversations are made available for free on Youtube with the support of Roe Green, DGF Board member and President of the Roe Green Foundation. “Thanks to Roe Green and her support of The Legacy Project, making Volume III free to the public on YouTube, students and writers of all ages will have access to the insights shared by some of our most influential writers in the American Theater,” said Andrew Lippa, President of the Dramatists Guild Fund, in a press statement.
