What has happened to dramaturgy in the brave new world of immersive, experiential, visual/physical theatre? - Theatre for Young Audiences has always been in the forefront of theatrical innovation. So what is next? - What have we learned about nurturing the artist of the future-- playwriting, theatre-making, performance? - How do artists establish rigorous, intentional new works development processes that are innovative and sustainable? - How does accountability serve the stakeholders in a new works development process? - How do we define and measure success in theatre for young audiences?
