Musical Theatre Factory

Formed in 2014 by Drama League and Lilly Award winner Shakina Nayfack, Musical Theatre Factory (MTF) is a radical, intentional, rigorous and inclusive nonprofit arts-services organization dedicated to helping musical theatre artists develop and present new work in a collaborative atmosphere free from commercial pressure. MTF is committed to art-making as change-making, dismantling oppressive ideologies towards collective liberation, and centering artists of excellence who exist at the intersection of underrepresented groups. Since its founding, MTF’s diverse lineup of programs has assisted in the development of hundreds of new musicals – including Michael R. Jackson’s Pulitzer Prize Winning "A Strange Loop."
