Several Graduate Musical Theatre Writing Program Alums and Current Students were selected as finalists for the 2021 NMI New Voices Project.
Current students Clare Bierman & Erika Ji (both Cycle 30) were selected as a writing team. Program alums Zonia Tsang (Cycle 25) and Erin Reifler (Cycle 28) were named Merit Award Recipients.
The New Voices Project is offered to a select group of young musical theatre playwrights, composers and lyricists under the age of 26, who receive workshops, readings, and concerts of their work.
The three teams chosen for the 2021 season will receive a virtual workshop/concert with NMI in April, and will receive feedback from the NMI staff and a representative from Walt Disney Imagineering Creative Entertainment.
