Musical Theatre Writers

Musical theatre writers are artists who create the songs, dialogue, and overall structure of a musical. They typically include a composer, who writes the music and melodies; a lyricist, who crafts the words and lyrics to suit the music; and a book writer, who develops the story, characters, and script. Together, these writers collaborate to develop a cohesive production that combines storytelling with musical expression, creating an engaging experience that uses songs and dialogue to convey emotion, advance the plot, and immerse the audience in the theatrical world.
