What is Dramaturgy? Some Answers From Our Members:
“My job as a dramaturg is to make the play more accessible to anyone who comes in contact with it - whatever I can do to bring the world of the play to life for directors, designers, actors, and patrons. In the rehearsal process that may involve actor packets, research, and serving as a resource in the rehearsal process. That idea then expands to include audience members through program notes, lobby displays, and talkbacks.”
