MTI announces all-hits song-list for fundraising revue All Together Now!

Theatrical licensor Music Theatre International (MTI) have revealed the song-list for their free musical revue All Together Now! – A Global Event Celebrating Local Theatre.

Available to license for free from 12-15 November, All Together Now! is celebrating the return of live theatre and is raising money for local theatres. Allowing companies across the world to produce and perform songs from a plethora of musicals over one weekend, MTI have now published the list of songs within the revue.

The list includes tracks from Rent, Les Misérables, Into the Woods, Matilda, Hairspray, Disney’s Beauty and the Beast, Fiddler on the Roof, Once on This Island, Little Shop of Horrors and Mamma Mia! among others. 

The production will be free to license with no royalty or rental fees, and participating organisations may utilise the show as a fundraiser for their theatre. MTI’s All Together Now! can be performed live, live-streamed, or a combination of both at local theatres over the weekend of 12 November. 

Drew Cohen, CEO of MTI Worldwide, said: ‘MTI is grateful for the generosity and support of the authors and rights holders contributing songs from their iconic musicals to the All Together Now! Revue. Theatre is about community and these authors are doing their part to reignite in-person theatre at all levels.’

MTI’s chief operating officer and director of education & development John Prignano said: ‘We designed the revue with multiple song options for each slot so theatres have flexibility with how they present the show’. 

‘The option to choose from two or three fantastic songs for each slot allows producers to tailor the show to best fit their artistic/creative vision, the talents of their cast, and the composition of their audience.’

Adding to the star-studded list of authors and rights holders donating their work are Alan Menken, Howard Ashman, Stephen Sondheim, Glenn Slater, Jack Feldman, Benny Andersson & Björn Ulvaeus, Green Day, Disney Theatrical Productions, Jeanine Tesori, Dick Scanlan, Bobby Lopez & Kristen Anderson-Lopez, Benj Pasek & Justin Paul, Jason Robert Brown, David Hein & Irene Sankoff, Sara Bareilles, Lionel Bart, Jason Howland, Mindi Dickstein and Jerry Bock & Sheldon Harnick.
