2010 Jonathan Larson Grant Winners to be Honored

Stage Directions: "The American Theatre Wing will award the 2010 Jonathan Larson Grants—given annually to honor emerging composers, lyricists and book writers, and help to continue Tony Award-winning composer Jonathan Larson’s dream of infusing musical theatre with a contemporary, joyful, urban vitality—to Peter Lerman, Daniel Maté, and songwriting team Michael Kooman (music) and Christopher Dimond (book & lyrics). After considering 165 applications they were selected to receive the grants, totaling $10,000. They will be honored at a presentation on Tuesday, March 9, 2010 at Touch in New York City."
