FESTIVAL UPDATE:

[The AMTF @The_AMTF]

Atlanta Musical Theatre Festival stands in solidarity with black artists, creators, and visionaries. We promise to do the work to make AMTF a time filled with equality for all. Black Lives Matter. #BlackLivesMatter

[The AMTF @The_AMTF]

Sneak peak of the music: “A chance encounter with a mysterious individual from another dimension, challenges a young woman from a royal legacy to defy the status quo resulting in a chain of events that that can destroy or revitalize the world she has come to love & cherish.”

[The AMTF @The_AMTF]

Sneak peak of the music: “The story of Margaret Mitchell, the iconic writer of “Gone With The Wind.” A rebel, a feminist and a secret that was held over three decades after her death. The only thing more dramatic than her novel was her actual life.”

[The AMTF @The_AMTF]

Sneak peak of the music: “Who decides if you’re worthy of love? The foundational principles of Christian love and acceptance go head to head with racism, political ideology, affairs, orientation, mental health, and tradition in this most unusual love story.”

[The AMTF @The_AMTF]

Sneak peak of the music: “In a steampunk town, Jacob is in love with a lower-class girl named Mara. Their love is one of fairy tales until Melina enters the scene. Many years pass & life takes unexpected twists, as the fate of Jacob's daughter and Mara's son become intertwined.”
