The Drama League Directors Project is the country's leading career development program for early and mid-career directors. Alumni of the program now total over 270 and can be found working in all aspects of the entertainment profession. The Directors Project enhances young directors' artistic growth, broadens their knowledge, and hones their skills by providing opportunities to work with and learn from leading theatre artists around the country. It provides opportunities for young directors to present their work for the professional community, as well as augments the network of professionals to whom new directors can turn to for counsel, support, and employment. The program accelerates the process through which new directors gain acceptance within the professional community, bringing their unique skills and vision into the working life of the American theatre.

The 2013 Directors Project fellows are in the city for an intensive week-long orientation program which includes a series of events and opportunities to speak with theatre professionals. The orientation culminates with the Drama League Awards Luncheon on Friday, May 17th.

The fellows in attendance at the brunch included Elizabeth Carson, Will Detlefsen, Alexandru Mihail, Raphael Massie, Louisa Proske, Jamila Redd, Samantha Saltzman, Danny Sharron, Nicole Watson, and Lian Walden. Other guests included Bonnie Comley, Stewart F. Lane, Roger Danforth, Pam MacKinnon, Chantal Pavageaux, and Alyssa Renzi.
