Hosted by Michael Chemers

HOT TOPICS IS BACK AND HOTTER THAN EVER! Hot Presenters at the 2020 LMDA conference will talk about a provocative question, assertion, issue, or project with which they are currently (passionately) engaged to initiate conversations and collaborations, or to address pressing issues for dramaturgy. Speakers have just five minutes each to open a door onto their topic. The strict time limit allows for multiple presentations and follow-up conversations. It also requires careful preparation.
