Summary
Panel discussion exploring the relationship between playwrights and directors. Panelists tell how they became theater professionals, with anecdotes about school productions and early projects. The role of the director is examined, and the writers debate whether a playwright or librettist should direct his or her own work. The relationship between the playwright and the actor is discussed. Panelists also take questions from the audience.
