James Houghton on Downstage Center

Signature Theatre Company Founding Artistic Director James Houghton was a recent guest on the American Theatre Wing/XM Radio's "Downstage Center," discussing the impulse that began the acclaimed Off-Broadway theater, which each season produces the work of a single playwright, and how that mission is still being played out 17 years later; and also describes the start of his tenure as director of the Drama Division at the famed Juilliard School – including how it feels to fill the shoes of the esteemed John Houseman, who had given Houghton one of his first acting jobs more than 20 years ago.

The one-hour interview with co-hosts John Von Soosten and Howard Sherman is now available online at AmericanTheatreWing.com

Signature Theatre Company's 2007-2008 season continues with the world premiere of Queens Boulevard (the musical) by 2007-2008 Playwright-in-Residence Charles Mee, which begins performances on December 6.  The season also includes the world premiere of Mee's Paradise Park, and the world premiere Legacy Production of Edward Alee's Occupant.  For more information, please visit www.signaturetheatre.org
