Did You Know? What a season! Between the years of 1927-1928, 280 new productions opened on Broadway. The most ever in a single season.

To obtain a performance license, you must first submit an application to MTI. Applications can be filled out online for both musicals and concerts, or forms can be found in the MTI Catalogue, or can be faxed or sent on request. Application for rights can also be in the form of a letter, provided you include the following information:

• Name and Address of Producing Organization
• Phone and Fax numbers
• Name of Show
• Dates of Desired Performance(s)
• Number of Performances
• Name of Theatre/Auditorium
• Seating Capacity of Theatre/Auditorium
• Ticket Prices (be specific, include all discounts)

This information should be sent (by mail or by fax, but not both) to MTI on your organization's letterhead.

The processing time for an application can vary from 2 days to 2 weeks. Some musicals may be restricted in certain areas or at certain times. Always obtain written confirmation of a musical's availability from MTI before planning a production or announcing a season.
