NO FEE THEATRE
The Midtown International Theatre Festival's 15th anniversary was a rousing success. To keep this high standard into the next decade and beyond, it was unanimously decided that the MITF will ELIMINATE ALL APPLICATION FEES to the prestigious summer festival, one of New York's most popular. And with more than 100 reviewers and industry in attendance, one of most respected.

AUTUMN ACCOLADES / WINTER WORKS
Details regarding the annual MITF Awards Ceremony are being finalized. Date/time and guest entertainment will be announced shortly. The Midwinter Madness Festival - another John Chatterton event - is gaining popularity. Last year's participation necessitated discussions to expand the festival held at the beginning of the year to two theatres. More to come... literally!
