ART TAP episode 077

photo: rehearsal shot from "She Kills Monsters" at Purdue Theatre



On tap this week is Amy Lynn Budd, Visiting Assistant Professor at Purdue University Theatre.  Amy was our guest in episode 011 and she’s back to discuss a new project, “She Kills Monsters,” opening April 12th.  Amy also talks about a recent course in which she collaborated, designed to explore the musical “Hamilton” from very creative perspectives.
Amy’s website is www.amylynnbudd.com; the Purdue Theatre website is https://www.cla.purdue.edu/academic/rueffschool/theatre/.

Amy offered an interesting Look-Up, a video of Lin Manuel-Miranda performing the first song he’d completed from the in-progress musical “Hamilton” at the White House Poetry Jam in 2009.  Considering the impact this musical was to have on American culture, and the yet nascent state of his effort at that time, it was a bold move on his part.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WNFf7nMIGnE
