SHOWS: South Pacific, The Light In The Piazza, To Kill A Mockingbird

There is not a genre that Tony Award winning director Bartlett Sher has not explored in his varied, celebrated career. His directorial credits include the original productions of The Light In The Piazza, Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown, The Bridges of Madison County, Oslo, and To Kill A Mockingbird, as well as acclaimed revivals of Awake and Sing, South Pacific, Joe Turner's Come and Gone, Golden Boy, The King and I, Fiddler on the Roof, and My Fair Lady.

Bart pulls back the curtain on his career to discuss how he investigates pre-existing texts, what it was like discovering theatrical mentors, and why the strongest directors are those that explore the world in which they live.

Also, Bart shines the spotlight on Kelli O'Hara, Danny Burstein, and Lauren Ambrose!
