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:
“I cannot be a materialist—but Oh, how is it possible that a God who speaks to all hearts can let Belgravia go laughing to a vicious luxury, and Whitechapel cursing to a filthy debauchery—such suffering, such dreadful suffering—and shall the short years of Christ’s mission atone for it all?”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“The parent is the strongest statement that the child hears regarding what it means to be alive and real. More than what we say or do, the way we are expresses what we think it means to be alive. So the articulate parent is less a telling than a listening individual.”
—Polly Berrien Berends (20th century)
