Stacy Wolf, Professor of Theater, Director of Fellowships and Director of Program in Music Theater, Princeton University; Author, Beyond Broadway: The Pleasure and Promise of Musical Theatre Across America

In Beyond Broadway, Stacy Wolf examines the widespread presence and persistence of musical theater in U.S. culture as a live, pleasurable, participatory experience.

Wolf’s talk illuminates musical theater’s enduring power as a joyful activity that touches millions of lives.
