Bring Our Shows To Your Theatre!
Licensing shows is expensive. Ours are a lot less.
Because licensing is so expensive, we create a lot of original works for our theatre. Because our theatre is small, we create shows that can work in small spaces with flexible casts, minimal sets, and bold stories. We know we’re far from alone in making this kind of theatre. So use what we’ve learned, pay a lot less than you’d pay for other shows, and bring bold stories to your audiences too.
THE COSTS:
Plays cost $50 per performance. No buying scripts. No shipping. Everything comes to you via PDF. This is the same price for schools, student groups, and amateur theatre groups of all sizes.
Musicals cost $100 per performance. No renting scripts and scores. No extra costs for tracks. This cost includes the PDF libretto, all the sheet music you need, and the tracks to perform it. If you’d rather play it live, we’ll get you the sheet music you need. This is the same price for schools, student groups, and amateur theatre groups of all sizes.
