For the past 6 years, Dana has been fortunate to be hired by NYU's Graduate Musical Theatre Writing Program for the thesis presentations held in April and May. During intense 2 and 4 day processes, Dana, the casts, and the creative teams rehearse and workshop the 1-act musicals for final presentation and review by the professors. Thesis season of the best times of the year for Dana, who absolutely adores using her sight-singing and strong-decision-making skills to bring new works to light and enable the further development of new pieces of theatre. This year's graduates held a showcase at Below 54, hosted by composing luminary, Polly Pen!
