The University Caucus of Literary Managers and Dramaturgs of the Americas will once again sponsor a Hot Topics session at the next annual conference in New York City on Thursday, June 25, 2015, from 3 to 5pm. Hot Topics invites all LMDA members (not academics only) to present, in 5 minutes, an idea or project that passionately engages you right now.

 

We’re fierce about the time limit to make room for everyone, so your presentation will require a good deal of careful preparation. You want to introduce the topic so that anyone interested can join you in conversation. It’s not a bad idea to write something in more detail, a page you can hand around, more if you want.

 

We are happy to write to your dean or department chair in support of your application for funds to attend the conference.

 

If you have a topic, and would like to be on the schedule, please get in touch with Geoff Proehl (gproehl@pugetsound.edu), Bryan Moore (orionbcm@yahoo.com), or Lee Devin (ldevin1@swarthmore.edu) right away. Spots are limited, so please contact us as soon as possible.

 

We hope you will consider attending and participating in this year’s session.
