Part 3 - Line 4a

NEW WORKS PROGRAMS FESTIVAL OF NEW MUSICALS: OUR MOST HIGHLY ATTENDED EVENT, OUR ANNUAL FESTIVAL SHOWCASES PRESENTATIONS OF EIGHT NEW MUSICALS BEFORE AN INDUSTRY-ONLY AUDIENCE WITH THE EXPERIENCE AND RESOURCES TO MOVE THE WORK FORWARD. FOLLOWING A VIRTUAL FESTIVAL IN 2020, THE 33RD ANNUAL FESTIVAL OF NEW MUSICALS FILMED LIVE PRESENTATIONS OF ALL FESTIVAL MUSICALS, WHICH WERE THEN SCREENED AT AN IN-PERSON EVENT ON OCTOBER 21 AND 22, 2021. MEMBERS OF THE INDUSTRY WERE INVITED TO ATTEND THE SCREENING, WHERE THEY COULD ALSO MEET THE WRITERS, OR THEY WERE ABLE TO VIEW A LIVESTREAM OF THE PRESENTATIONS, PRESENTED IN COLLABORATION WITH BROADWAY ON DEMAND. NAMT ASSUMES THE COSTS OF PRODUCING AND MARKETING THE FESTIVAL, HANDLES ALL ADMINISTRATION AND LOGISTICS AND TAKES NO ROYALTY STAKE IN FUTURE PRODUCTIONS. SINCE 1989, THE FESTIVAL HAS INTRODUCED MUSICAL THEATRE PRODUCERS TO ALMOST 300 MUSICALS AND OVER 500 WRITERS FROM AROUND THE WORLD. MORE THAN 85% HAVE GONE ON TO SUBSEQUENT READINGS, WORKSHOPS, PRODUCTIONS AND TOURS; BEEN LICENSED; AND/OR RECORDED ON CAST ALBUMS AS A DIRECT RESULT OF THE FESTIVAL. NAMT IS CONSTANTLY WORKING TO PROVIDE MORE OPPORTUNITIES FOR WRITERS TO PRESENT THEIR WORK TO THE INDUSTRY. IN ADDITION, IN 2019 NAMT LAUNCHED A NEW PROGRAM, THE FESTIVAL OBSERVERSHIP FOR EARLY-CAREER DIRECTORS, AIMED AT INCREASING ACCESS AND INCLUSIVITY. THE PROGRAM IS OPEN SPECIFICALLY TO DIRECTORS OF COLOR, DIRECTORS WITH DISABILITIES, WOMEN DIRECTORS, AND LGBTQ+ DIRECTORS. BY PROVIDING AN OPPORTUNITY TO OBSERVE THE MUSICAL THEATRE DEVELOPMENT PROCESS, AND MEET AND NETWORK WITH LEADERS OF THE INDUSTRY, WE HOPE THAT THIS PROGRAM WILL ACTIVELY EXPAND DIVERSITY IN THE MUSICAL THEATRE INDUSTRY AND SUPPORT THE NEXT GENERATION OF LEADERS.
