Community Gathering on Zoom - register with the bright red reservation box to receive the Zoom link. These gatherings are a service for the theater community and are offered free for TRU members; we ask that non-members help keep us running by buying a ticket, making a donation or joining as a member.
In the room: Jonathan S. Cerullo (Broadway: Choreography Consultant for Say Goodnight Gracie, Assistant Director and/or Choreo for Band In Berlin, Anna Karenina, The Three Musketeers, original Broadway cast of Legs Diamond, National Tour: CATS, Sweet Charity with Donna McKechnie; as well as off-Broadway and TV credits); Peter Filichia, theater journalist and historian (NY-based theater critic for The Star-Ledger newspaper in Newark, and New Jersey's TV News 12, The Asbury Park Press, plus weekly columns at Masterworks Broadway and Kritzerland, and regular entries for the Music Theatre International Marquee blog; plus five books); Bob Ost, award-winning playwright, composer and lyricist, sometime director and fulltime executive director of TRU. Where does the love for theater come from? And how have these three theater lovers found a pathway to a career in theater? Also as producer, director and co-host of the upcoming TRU Love annual gala, they will talk about the intricacies of preparing and producing an event, and how art can offer comfort when the world seems overwhelming.
