MTI Discount for Members

AACT’s partnership with Music Theatre International, allowing for discounts on standard rental fees, continues for the 2019-2020 membership year. Under the agreement, AACT organizational members receive substantial discounts on standard rental fees on MTI musicals through August, 2020. Discounts start at 20%..

Here’s the Deal

• For the first four MTI musicals produced during the year beginning September 1, 2019, paid member theatres will receive a 20% discount on standard rental fees.
• If a theatre produces 5 MTI musicals in a year, the fifth standard rental package is free!

According to MTI Senior Operations Officer John Prignano, most standard rentals cost between $750 and $1,200 per license. Based on that range, with a 20% discount AACT member theatres save between $150 and $240 for the first MTI musical. Essentially, theatres with budgets up to $99,999 can save more than the cost of their AACT membership with the first rental.

How it works

The following stipulations apply to the program:

1. To participate in the discount program, a theatre must be a current paid AACT member for 2019-2020.
2. Again this year, a member organization will work directly with their MTI agent to receive the discount.
3. The discount will apply to any MTI shows produced between September 1, 2019 and August 31, 2020.
4. The agreement is retroactive during the current membership year. If a member theatre has already paid rental fees for the period covered by the agreement, the cost difference will be refunded.
5. Rental discount applies to standard rental fees only.

For full details on applying the discount, AACT members must be signed in to the AACT website, then go to the "Offers & Discounts" listings". From the "Category" menu, choose " Scripts, Materials, Royalties," and scroll down to Music Theatre International.
