The American Theatre Wing honored the 2019 Jonathan Larson Grants recipients at the WYNC Greene Space March 18. The grants, named in honor of the late, Pulitzer Prize-winning composer of Rent, are given annually to honor emerging composers, lyricists, and book writers.
This 2019 recipients are the team of Julia Gytri and Avi Amon (Salonika), Emily Gardner Xu Hall (Untitled Cherry Orchard Musical), Andy Roninson (the musical podcast Take a Ten), and Ben Wexler (Washington Square).

The 2019 Jonathan Larson Grants recipients were chosen by a panel consisting of producer Alia Jones-Harvey and music directors Annastasia Victory and Jason Michael Webb.
This year's recipients each received grant of $10,000 each, as well as additional support in the form of residencies, concerts, and recording grants.
Edelstein will directs a cast of 30, with nearly 1,000 San Diegans participating directly in the milestone production that will mark the completion of the Bard’s canon at the venue.
