A series of blockbuster speakers will launch each day of USITT’s 50th Annual Conference & Stage Expo from March 31 to April 3 in Kansas City, Missouri. USITT will honor Oscar Brockett on the publication of his seminal work, Making the Scene: A History of Stage Design and Technology in Europe and the United States with co-authors Margaret Mitchell and Linda Hardberger. The book will receive USITT’s 2010 Golden Pen Award on Thursday, April 1.

Sally Struthers will open the Conference on Wednesday morning, March 31 with a dynamic presentation. Jennifer Tipton will speak on Friday, April 2, and Walt Disney Entertainment Vice President François Leroux will give his perspective on what lies ahead for the entertainment industry in Saturday morning’s supersession.
