If you have a new musical, this submission opportunity is for you. 

And if you’re looking for ways to get your show(s) out in the world and in front of people who are looking for new works, keep reading.

Our friends at Musical Theater Educators’ Alliance (MTEA) are launching a brand-new database aimed at connecting theatermakers with their network of universities, conservatories, and training programs around the world!

The goal for the New Works Collaboration Catalog is to provide a mutually-beneficial resource for theatermakers looking for development opportunities (or a production) and for educational institutions who are looking to produce new works with their students.
