"ETC's Litehouse New Musicals Reading Series is a gem to be treasured. Encore offers in-depth analysis of music, lyrics and book in a highly knowledgeable, detailed and constructive manner. The feedback is of the highest calibre and will, undoubtedly, form part of the developmental process of many future quality productions around the States and the UK."
- DENISE WRIGHT, UK Songwriter/Composer and co-creator of JACOB'S PILLOW, EMERALD, THE REVOLUTION OF BETSY LORING and many others
"The concept for this Litehouse series is a brilliant one. Simple, constructive, and energizing. Musical Theatre in general needs more programs like this one if it is to sustain itself and remain vital."
- PAT BYRNES, New Yorker Cartoonist and Librettist/Lyricist for DESPAIRADISE and MY DEAD IRISH MOTHER
"Developmental programs like the Litehouse Reading Series are incredibly valuable to musical theater writers. We feel privileged to have worked with the smart, dedicated, and enthusiastic staff at Encore and we hope many other writers will get to have an equally rewarding experience"
- BROOKE PIERCE & MASI ASARE, Creative Team for SYMPATHY JONES
"I am so happy you all [ETC/MusicalWorld] are out there and you are supporting theater and making work happen. I think it's so exciting and I love that you are carrying that torch, so keep up the good work!"
- SUSAN BLACKWELL, Actress (Broadway's [title of show], Broadway.com's 'Side By Side By Susan Blackwell')
