American Music Theatre Project - Mission Statement

Mission Statement

The American Music Theatre Project (AMTP) is a new initiative at Northwestern University dedicated to nourishing the vitality of American music theatre through:

• The development and production of new musicals by music theatre’s leading artists.

• Increasing opportunities for education and training with Northwestern’s theatre, dance and opera programs.

• Initiating a broad range of interdisciplinary research projects.

AMTP’s ultimate goal is the establishment of a permanent Center for the American Music Theatre on Northwestern’s Evanston campus. The center would expand upon the work of AMTP, as well as introduce new programs, including an annual summer festival of new musicals.

Famous quotes containing the words mission and/or statement:

    Man is eminently a storyteller. His search for a purpose, a cause, an ideal, a mission and the like is largely a search for a plot and a pattern in the development of his life story—a story that is basically without meaning or pattern.
    Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)

    The honor my country shall never be stained by an apology from me for the statement of truth and the performance of duty; nor can I give any explanation of my official acts except such as is due to integrity and justice and consistent with the principles on which our institutions have been framed.
    Andrew Jackson (1767–1845)
