Are you one of the many theatermakers around the world attempting to make--or perform in--outdoor productions for the first time this summer? This panel, featuring American theatermakers who are pioneers in creating outdoor productions during the pandemic, focuses on sharing best practices around both outdoor productions and audience health + safety. From our panelists, we'll learn about how they and their colleagues effectively and artistically created--or are planning to create--outdoor happenings, what new elements they've had to contend with, and thoughts for theatermakers looking to follow suit. Panelists will include Jessica Paz (Tony Award-Winning Sound Designer), Mike Isaacson (Artistic Director at St. Louis MUNY), Andy Mientus (Actor & Co-Deviser of Alien/Nation), and Gerry McIntyre (Choreographer of First AEA-Approved Pandemic Production). More about The Comeback Project: The Comeback Project is a conversation series to help theatermakers restart in the wake of the pandemic. This premiere conversation features international theatermakers from countries in which theaters have partially or fully reopened during the pandemic. By bringing together experts from within the industry and equally, from beyond the industry, The Comeback Project hopes to provide resources and strategies for arts-workers from all corners of the theatrical world planning their return to in-person work. These thought-provoking conversations aim to respond to the challenges the theater community is facing in real time and future conversation topics will include: Returning to the Rehearsal Room (featuring those who’ve done it), Lessons from Sports and Television, Making Outdoor Theater, and more. Co-created by theater directors Sammi Cannold (Evita, New York City Center) & Rebecca Aparicio (Jack and the Beanstalk, A.R.T.) in partnership with Broadway Podcast Network.
