"Tony"-nominated director meets with theatre students.
Bartlett Sher '81, director of the award-winning musical, The Light on the Piazza, returned to alma mater on Oct. 27 to meet with students and attend an open discussion session with Steve Vineberg of the College's theatre department.
Winner of six Tony Awards, five Drama Desk Awards and two Outer Critics Circle Awards, The Light on the Piazza opened on Broadway in April under the auspices of the Lincoln Center Theater. The musical is currently running in the Vivian Beaumont Theater in New York.
Sher has served as artistic director of the Intiman Theatre in Seattle since 2000. His many credits include Nickel and Dimed, The Dying Gaul and The Servant of Two Masters. Sher's staging of Cymbeline, the first American Shakespearean production seen at the Royal Shakespeare Company, earned him the prestigious Joe A. Callaway Award from the Stage Directors and Choreographers Foundation.
