Musicals Tonight!, now in its
14th SEASON and honored with an OBIE Award, is a not-for-profit theatre company in New York City primarily dedicated to the revival of "neglected" musicals in a manner affordable to most audience members. Since our inception in 1997, we have revived well over 65 musicals in staged concert form (charging only $25 per ticket and operating under an Actor's Equity Association Showcase Code).

The list of creators of the shows we present is a veritable Who's Who of American Musical Theatre - legendaries such as Cole Porter, George & Ira Gershwin, and Rodgers & Hart. Learn more about our many past performances by clicking on any of the show titles to the right.

The 2011-2012 Season includes five entertaining musical revivals: Jerry Hermans' Milk and Honey (1961); All American (1962) by Charles Strouse and Mel Brooks; Li'l Abner (1959) by Johnny Mercer; Sitting Pretty (1924) by Jerome Kern and P.G. Wodehouse; and Cole Porter's Something for the Boys (1943).

Musicals Tonight! is the only theatre company to offer a variety of matinees! Matinees are on Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sundays at 2:00 PM. Evening shows Tuesday through Saturday start at 7:30.

If you'd like to know more about Producer/Artistic Director Mel Miller and the history of Musicals Tonight!, you'll enjoy this article from Playbill On-Line.

Because these musicals are produced as staged concerts, we can focus on the work and the performers and place less attention on costume and scenic details.

We have showcased the talents of over 300 very talented - and often under-employed - actors. But please note! Alums of ours are on Broadway in Chorus Line, Mamma Mia, Xanadu, Phantom, South Pacific, and many more.

You will also enjoy another Musicals Tonight! showcasing effort - At This Performance! - our eighth season with this hit series designed to allow talented Broadway standbys and understudies to sing their shows’ current musical hits. Audiences can hear today’s theatre songs - for $25 instead of $101.25 - and talented performers who rarely sing before audiences and/or agents, can do so. There are FIVE shows this season, all starting at 7:00 PM - check for dates. Become a Season Subscriber and receive a $5 discount on each concert!
