S5 Ep2: RISE Theatre Directory & Maestra Music with Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Georgia Stitt
Music is our focus today on the Broadway Gives Back podcast, and I have two very special women as my guests. So first, Let’s “Let it go” for Oscar, Emmy, and Grammy award-winning, Kristen Anderson-Lopez. Kristen is best known for her work from Frozen, Coco, In Transit, Up Here and Finding Nemo. Kristen is also very involved in two important organizations… Brooklyn Children’s Theatre and Maestra Music. Speaking of Maestra… we will also be talking to multiple award winning music director, composer, lyricist, pianist, and music producer, Georgia Stitt, who started Maestra Music to provide support, visibility, and community to the women and nonbinary people who make the music in musical theatre— and now together with Lin-Manuel Miranda, they are developing and managing the RISE Theatre Directory which is helping to build a more equitable and inclusive theatre industry.
