About.

The Muse Project shifts the theater paradigm through the empowerment of women stage actors as creators and content generators. Our Muses have included an array of accomplished and burgeoning actresses, including the late Lynn Cohen, Florencia Lozano, Déa Julien, Jocelyn Kuritsky (Artistic Director), and many more. We have partnered with various celebrated New York theater companies to incubate our work, including New Georges, The New Group, Abingdon Theatre Company, The Tank, The Flea Theater, The PIT, Theaterlab, & Torn Page.

More About us coming soon.

In Memoriam.

The Muse Project mourns the loss of our friend and colleague, Lanie Zipoy. Lanie was seriously injured in a car accident in June and succumbed to her injuries shortly thereafter. Lanie was a champion and advisor to The Muse Project from its inception. She was simultaneously filled to the brim with a full, elastic heart and awesome ambition: an artist's artist and woman's woman. We miss her terribly. To say the world has lost a bright light and a great talent is a wild understatement. We continue to send love to her sister, Kat. If you have the means, you can still make a contribution to Lanie's GoFundMe, which supports her sister during this terrible time, and you can view Lanie's film, The Subject here. The Subject was Lanie's directorial debut. It stars Jason Biggs and Aunjanue Ellis.

"The Muses were the Greek goddesses of poetic inspiration, the adored deities of song, dance, and memory, on whose mercy the creativity, wisdom and insight of all artists and thinkers depended" (greekmythology.com). Lanie was every Muse; most definitely ours.
