Broadway Junior Project
Music Theatre International’s Broadway Junior® Project provides schools that lack arts programming with the FREE training and materials necessary to present a Broadway Junior® musical production in their school. The goals of the Project are to:
- Assist schools that currently have no full time arts specialist to create an infusion of the arts and an arts culture within the school
- Build a strong community through the arts that includes the school, parents and members of the community at large
- Engage as many students as possible in all aspects and areas of the arts
- Encourage the connection of arts programming to curriculum including assessment
Schools interested in being part of Music Theatre International’s Broadway Junior Project must fill out an application to be one of three winning schools selected for 2016/2017.
The three winning schools will receive:
- A license to perform a Broadway Junior musical of their choice
- A ShowKit® of materials that supplies teachers with all the resources they will need to direct, choreograph and teach music like a true professional
- Professional development workshops for the schools’ teachers

About the Professional Development Workshops
Teams of teachers from each of the selected schools will participate in Professional Development workshops in a variety of areas lead by Master Teachers from educational theatre experts, iTheatrics.
These workshops will provide training in all areas of musical theatre production as well as curriculum connections and community involvement. Throughout the entire process of rehearsal and performance a local professional Production Advisor selected by MTI will offer guidance in these same areas while continuing to empower the teaching teams to run the program by themselves.

Where is the Libretto
Hi, We recently booked our show and were given a link to download the resources. The links only provided the tracks and the Production book. No link for a Libretto or Score was given. How do I access those? The Show is Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer.
Thank you

Is the Piano/Conductor's Score handwritten or typeset?
Hi there,
I was just wondering if the PC score licensed with the show is handwritten or typeset. Also, whether or not the option full reference score is typeset or not.
Thanks so much!

What was the first college production of Into the Woods?
Hi! I produced Into the Woods in April 1991 for Ram's Head Theatrical Society at Stanford University. We worked with MTI to secure the rights beginning in summer of 1990. We had to wait to finalize them because the bus-and-truck production was still touring, and we had to make sure they wouldn't be in our area. For years, we've been wondering if we were the first college production of Into the Woods? Can we claim that or did another school beat us to the punch? Would your records be able to tell us? Thanks for any help you can give!
