On July 11 at 7 pm Central time, I’ll be talking with hosts Cerise Jacobs and Amy Punt and fellow librettists Sokunthary Svay, Omar Najmi, and Brandy Carie on a Dramatists’ Guild panel called Librettists in Conversation: Building a Career as a Librettist. We’ll discuss finding collaborators, evaluating possible projects and creative partners, building a foundation with collaborators on common ground, working through creative differences, and other aspects of libretto writing. The event is free–register here to get the Zoom link for the discussion. Bring along any questions you have about the libretto-ing life, including writing, collaboration, or any other topics.
