Our guests are author-artist John C. Wilson and Baltimore Theatre Project Founder Philip Arnoult, talking about the art of Michael Iampieri. The interviews were conducted by telephone in the Spring of 2021.

Baltimore Theatre Project was founded by Arnoult in 1971. Born during a tumultuous time of social change in America, Theatre Project grew to be the entry-way in America for thrilling experimental theatre from around the world. Under Arnoult’s guidance, theatre-goers were introduced to some of the planet’s most exciting voices in theatre, music and dance.

Artist and teacher Micheal Iampieri began attending performances at Baltimore Theatre Project from the beginning, and with his sketchbook and a few pencils and pens, drew lightning sketches in the dark almost every opening night for three decades.

John C. Wilson, joining Theatre Project in the mid-1970s, became friends with Michael, and in 2020, when Michael was confronted retirement due to declining health, was determined to created a book to pay tribute to and collect Michael’s wonderful illustrations, and create a singular history of Baltimore Theatre Project. The result is the book “Drawing in the Dark- The Art of Michael Iampieri”.
