The Passing of the Torch
Wendy Bable recently joined the People’s Light community as the Producer for Arts Discovery Programs. A recent MFA graduate of The University of Texas at Austin, Wendy is a director/teaching artist/playwright with a particular interest in diversifying the canon and multi-textual narratives for young audiences. Selected directing credits include: Still Life with Iris, Through the Darkness, A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Pippin, The Bald Soprano, Gypsy, Antigone, Lysistrata, and The Lesson. Her recent collaboration with Suzan Zeder’s The Edge of Peace was featured during the 2010 New Visions/New Voices at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. Wendy was named a Winifred Ward Scholar by the American Alliance for Theater and Education, a prestigious distinction recognized as the highest honor bestowed in the field of theatre for young audiences. Her work on Seussical, the Musical at the Zach Scott Theatre and Steven Dietz’s Still Life with Iris received Austin Critic’s Table Nominations for Best Direction in 2008 and 2009, and her recent play/ballet for young audiences, Funky Snowman, was featured at the Dillar Street Theatre in Chicago last winter.
Wendy is currently Co-Chair of the Professional Theatre Network for the American Alliance for Theatre and Education.
