If you love movie musicals (and let's face it, who doesn't?), you won't want to miss this tuneful panel discussion about the art of putting words, pictures and music together on celluloid. What goes into the collaboration between writer, director, choreographer, composer and lyricist to come up with the script and the movie itself? Come find out as we assemble an A-list group of professionals, including Moderator Michael A. Kerker (ASCAP's Director of Musical Theatre), Randal Kleiser (GREASE), Bill Condon (CHICAGO, DREAMGIRLS), Peter Barsocchini (HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 1-4), Leslie Dixon (HAIRSPRAY), Linda Wolverton (BEAUTY AND THE BEAST and THE LION KING), Allison Burnett ( FAME), Winnie Holzman (WICKED) and H.P. Mendoza, whose new musical FRUIT FLY screens at Outfest directly after the panel.

Co-presented by The Writers Guild of America West's Gay & Lesbian Writers Committee.
