Life Stories presents...Directing Intensive with the talented Victor Maog

06 May 2010, 1:51 PM by Juliagrob

In preparation for our final performance on April 25-26th, Lifestories students will be working with Victor Maog, a professional director.  Victor will join us for four sessions (totalling 24 hours!) to refine, tighten and theatricalize the 5 short plays which are a part of AMERICANA, our spring show.  Basically to help bring our work to the next level. 

Victor is a New York City-based stage director and educator considered "one of the nation's leading young Asian-American directors" (Denver Post).  He creates plays and musicals that inspire dialogue, push theatricality, and reach out to both mainstream and marginalized audiences.  A perfect match for the Lifestories crew. 

Check out pictures of Victor working with the talented ensemble.  As you can see, the chemistry was instantaneous.  Thank you Victor for helping us make AMERICANA a truly amazing show!
