Music-Theatre Group has announced special interviews with Julie Taymor and Elliot Goldenthal and Diane Paulus and Randy Weiner, to be moderated by Thomas Schumacher. The talks will take place on Thursday, May 17 (Taymor and Goldenthal) and Thursday, June 7 (Paulus and Weiner) at the Dimenna Center for Classical Music (450 W. 37th Street between 9th and 10th) at 7:30pm.

Four of this country’s most daring music-theatre artists will be interviewed by Schumacher on topics ranging from their launch as collaborative artists, to making their art on Broadway, to collaborating in film, opera, and circus. All four are alumni of Music-Theatre Group’s generative process of turning inspiration into art.

Between them, Taymor and Paulus have three shows currently running on Broadway: The Lion King and Spider-Man: Turn Off The Dark (Taymor) and Porgy and Bess (Paulus).
