The production team of Elton John and Tim Rice's Aida -- musical director Paul Bogaev, press representative Chris Boneau, Tony-winning director Robert Falls (for Death of a Salesman), book writer David Henry Hwang (who won a Tony for his play M. Butterfly), vice president of creative affairs Stuart Oken, and producer Thomas Schumacher -- follows the show from its creative inception, through its early production at the Alliance Theatre in Atlanta, the Chicago tryout, to the Broadway opening.

For more than 30 years the American Theatre Wing has been bringing together performers, directors, playwrights, designers, choreographers, producers and behind-the-scenes personnel from the American and international theatre, WIT offers a rare opportunity for students and audiences to see the people who create theatre engaged in thoughtful conversation with one another. With more than 600 past guests, the seminars have become an unequalled archive of theatrical talk, a chance to hear from the people behind the characters, stories and productions that draw us to the theatre. We have collected the Tony Award winners who have appeared on Working In The Theatre.
