SHOW SUBMISSION

Thanks for contributing to the Canadian Musical Theatre Database!

Producers and educators say it can be challenging to bring Canadian musicals to their stages. Our goal is to make shopping for Canadian musicals efficient and hassle-free.

We ask for quite a bit of information about your show.

We suggest you have a quick look through the form below to see if this is something you'd like to complete now or come back to later, as it might take a bit of time.

A red and white star

If you would like to submit a show but could use some time to get organized, we'll send you a PDF of what to prepare. Click here.

Once you complete your show submission, we will take as little time as possible to review it and get back to you with anything we may need to clear up. Then, once that's taken care of, your show will have its very own page published on our site! It will look a bit like this.

Theatre is a collaborative artform.

If you have collaborated with other artists on this project, we encourage you to consult with them prior to submitting to ensure that you all agree on how you will represent your work on our site.

Just so you know, we are NOT a licensing company.

If someone wants to license your show, we simply make it easier to find out how.

If you would like to have your show on the site but would rather submit the information another way, no problem. Reach out to us at info@cmtdb.ca.
