Students in the 2024 spring Princeton Atelier course, “A Blank Page: Creativity, Collaboration, and Adaptation” concluded their semester performing the short one-act musicals they created in class.

The course, taught by Tony Award-nominated composer Dave Malloy and Lucille Lortel Award-winning director Annie Tippe, invited aspiring playwrights, composers, directors, and performers of all levels to explore creativity and collaboration through the form of musical theater. Students studied various musicals and their source materials in tandem with writings and creative exercises in preparation for these performances, which took place on April 22 in the Berlind Theatre Rehearsal Room.
