Sundance Institute

Leave your iPod at home and enjoy a live performance of selections from the Sundance Theater Playlist, featuring new music from Sundance-supported composers Kirsten Childs (The Bubbly Black Girl Sheds Her Chameleon Skin), Scott Frankel (Grey Gardens), and Joseph Thalken (Harold and Maude). Their new or rarely heard music will be sung by some of New York’s most talented performers, including Rebecca Luker. Monologuist Josh Kornbluth (Haiku Tunnel and Red Diaper Baby) also performs excerpts from his Citizen Josh, a piece that grew out of his distress at the anemic condition of American democracy—and his nagging suspicion that our society’s political health depends on the active participation of all its citizens, even ones as habitually passive as himself.

The Playlist concert features work by artists supported by Sundance Institute’s Theatre Program, which assists emerging and established theater artists, and encourages and supports the development of new works for the stage through labs and retreats.

As you use our Online Archives, please understand that the information presented from Festivals, Labs, and other activities is taken directly from official publications from each year. While this information is limited and doesn't necessarily represent the full list of participants (e.g. actors and crew), it is the list given to us by the main film/play/project contact at the time, based on the space restrictions of our publications. Each entry in the Online Archives is meant as a historical record of a particular film, play, or project at the time of its involvement with Sundance Institute. For this reason, we can only amend an entry if a name is misspelled, or if the entry does not correctly reflect the original publication.
