Catch Me If You Can Content Question
I am from Elyria Catholic High School and we are considering Catch Me If You Can. As a Catholic school, we were wondering if we could remove or alter references to Playboy and Playboy bunnies in order to be appropriate for our community?

Musical availability
We'd like to check the availability of a couple of musicals to help us make our decision as to which one to do. How do we do that without the formal application process.

Switch gender of Minstrel?
Would it be possible to have the Minstrel played by a woman? This would increase the number of feamle lead/featured roles from 2 to 3, making it much more producable for schools.

Licensing Fee Waiver
We are doing a non-profit, theatre outreach, production this spring that will travel to Title I schools free of charge. Are there any programs that would allow a discounted or waived performance rights fee for a production like this?

Does MTI have any approved cuts or changes that would make the show more appropriate for a traditional school's audience? I love the show, but I know there are a few lines that my administration would balk at.
When we did SPAMALOT, the company that held the licenses for it offered some alternatives for some of the more racy material. Any chance MTI will do that for SOMETHING ROTTEN?

We are doing a not for profit production of Next to Normal, could the price for the tracks possibly be lowered?
Our production is completely not for profit, our tickets are free. However, we would like to use these backing tracks and cannot afford the full price. We are also only doing a few performances. Is there any way the price can be lowered?
