LICENSING AVAILABLE
Theatre Now's "10-Minute Musical Collection" is the first licensing program of its kind, licensing and publishing only short-form musicals. Established in 2020, the organization's catalog features some of the best emerging, mid-career, and established musical theatre writing teams.
The titles in this collection have all been showcased and developed through Theatre Now's festival of ten-minute musical flagship program, SOUND BITES. While short plays are widely available, there's a lack of opportunity and availability for short musicals in the commercial and educational theatre landscape. We aim to change that by creating a licensing catalogue, a home, just for short musicals to live and thrive.
Becoming the authors' representatives for titles we've produced, we're extremely passionate about all of these short musicals and we'd like to provide them to you as new programming opportunities in high schools, colleges, community and regional theaters across the country.
In 2024 we venture into licensing full-length musicals and are very excited to add our first two pieces to this category.
As Theatre Now is a non-profit 501(c)(3) artist service organization, proceeds we receive from our licensing program will be invested into our production programming, enabling us to provide greater resources for the development of our authors' next musical theatre shows.
Please see below the available shows for licensing inquires and more information.
