Welcome to Mercury Musical Developments - the home of new musical theatre writing in the UK. MMD was established in 1992 to nurture and encourage writers and composers of musical theatre and to initiate and develop new work for the UK and international stage. We are still as determined as ever to help create exciting new musical theatre.
Acquiring the skills to write musical theatre, the most complex of art forms, is a long journey that demands commitment, passion and above all, guidance. MMD is all about that journey so we are, to use a current buzzword, process-oriented. At MMD talented musical theatre writers learn and hone their skills through seminars and craft sessions and then go on to develop their work in Writers Labs, residencies, workshops and readings – all under the watchful eyes of skilled tutors and mentors who work at the top of their profession. And at the end of this process MMD is proud to showcase the most promising work to the public and the theatre industry and to progress writers’ careers with commissions and production opportunities.
Whether you are an established or aspiring musical theatre writer, a director or producer interested in developing new work, a theatre company or drama school interested in collaboration, or a musical theatre supporter who wants to be the first to see brand new musicals hot off the keyboard or join workshop audiences - you can help us develop thrilling, vibrant and ground-breaking musical theatre. Please get involved!
MMD gratefully acknowledges financial support from the PRS Foundation, the Mackintosh Foundation, the Noel Coward Foundation, the Stephen Sondheim Society and the Fineman Trust.
