Hear the composer and librettist talk about how a musical theatre piece makes its way from idea through writing and assembling of a creative team, to arriving fully-staged on opening night.

They also pull back the curtain to give a backstage peek into the creation of their other works, such as Sheng’s operas Madame Mao, The Monkey King and Hwang's Broadway shows, from M. Butterfly to his current Tarzan. Free and open to the public Contact Information Doretha Coval 734 936-3518 humin@umich.edu |
