In Progress:

Currently Jessica is working on two chapters for a new musical theatre history book. This book is written by a collection of diverse musical theatre educator voices in order to facilitate a balanced retelling of our musical theatre history that includes underrepresented voices that is missing from many current MT Textbooks. The book is also aimed at engaging the 21st century student. Jessica’s chapters focus on Jerome Kern and the Ziegfeld Follies/MT Revue. Stay tuned for updates!
