Drawing in the Dark at Baltimore Theatre Project. On artist Micheal Iampieri, with John C. Wilson, Anne Cantler-Fulwiler, and Philip Arnoult. Artist Michael Iampieri drew during live performances of theatre, dance, and music for more than 30 years. John C. Wilson’s book, “Drawing in the Dark: The Art of Michael Iampieri” celebrates the legacy of Baltimore Theatre Project’s visual historian, and showcases nearly 300 of Michael’s drawings. Paired with essays by former Theatre Project Directors, “Drawing in the Dark” reveals the intimate relationship between performance and audience. With quick, mindful strokes of his pencil, Micheal captured the precision of movement, depth of emotion, and verve of dramatic performance. We present an audio recording of a panel discussion that was held at The Ivy Bookshop in Baltimore on Tuesday, August 10th, 2021. The speakers are author John C. Wilson, Theatre Project Board Member and Former Producing Director Anne Cantler-Fulwiler, and Theatre Project Founder Philip Arnoult. The moderator is Juanita Rockwell, writer and director, and founding director of Towson Univerity’s MFA in Theatre program. The event was held at the Ivy Bookshop’s spacious outdoor covered patio. A fierce thunder and rain storm moved in, but didn’t dissuade the large audience for attending the book-signing and panel discussion. The Baltimore Theatre Project is celebrating its 50th Anniversary in 2021-2022. Founded in 1971 by Philip Arnoult, the theatre has been presenting theatre, music, dance, and performance art from around the world since its doors opened.
