Collaboration
During the performance, you will hear music composed expressly for this production by Hartt graduate student, Jared Otto. This collaboration with the Music Composition Department is bringing original music to six Theatre Division productions this season. Each student composer works directly with theatre faculty directors to develop a musical score that fulfills the requirements of the play and the vision of the director. The student composers are supervised by John Pike and Professor Stephen Michael Gryc who has spearheaded this effort. Musicians
