4/19/07  Edges officially available from MTI

We are so excited to announce that EDGES, Benj & Justin's first
musical revue, is officially available for licensing through MUSIC THEATRE INTERNATIONAL. This is a huge honor for us and quite remarkable as it enables any theatre or school across the country (or abroad) to apply for the rights to perform our show. So if you know of anyone looking for a low-budget show for 4 actors, a small band, and minimal sets--tell them about EDGES! It will especially work well at high schools and colleges, so please spread the word! Here is the link to obtain more information about licensing EDGES through MTI:
