Broadway Theatre Project Welcomes Back Patrick Wilson, a BTP Alum and Guest Artist, to Teach Monday, July 13

Broadway Theatre Project Alum and Guest Artist Patrick Wilson says:

“I always feel like the use of the word Broadway is a moniker people give things, but the caliber of teachers and guest artists at Broadway Theatre Project are the real deal. I am a huge fan of BTP. It prepares the apprentices for a career and that is one of the things that keeps me going back.”
