Working outside the established "classical" and "musical theater" venues, a number of exciting artists are pushing the boundaries of new music theater, incorporating everything from film and video to puppets and punk bands. The composers/dramatists who launched this movement—Robert Ashley, Meridith Monk, Lee Breuer, Ann Greene, Leroy Jenkins, Thulani Davis—are joined by younger artists who are taking up the call to produce progressive music theater: John Moran/Ridge Theater, Ruth Margraff, Yasunao Tone, Mikel Rouse, and others. Their radical libretti/scores—rarely published as texts per se themselves—are, in fact, remarkable blueprints which provide a glimpse into the very process of performance development. Production stills, stage directions, musical notations, composition notes, and artworks, give imaginative readers a chance to recreate for themselves their own variations of these, multimedia events.
