THE SONG IS YOU!
Upcoming Concerts
and Cabarets
The Song Is You! celebrates the words, music and artists that give the art form its passion and importance. These concerts showcase the finest theater and film songs while exploring the cultural and historical impact of musical theater as an American art form. Often referred to as a “docu–concert” or live documentary, each TMTP concert combines live performances with commentary and dozens of rare still images and video clips.
Star Dust: The Songs of Hoagy Carmichael
A jazz legend, Hoagy was a beloved songwriter who worked mostly in Hollywood–just think of “Skylark,” “Georgia On My Mind,” “Heart and Soul,” and “The Nearness of You.” And help us celebrate our 10th-annual concert in partnership with the Cleveland Jazz Orchestra!

Who We Are, What We Do and Why We Do It
Our Mission
The Musical Theater Project is a lively “museum,” its doors open wide both locally and nationally. Our mission is to preserve and honor the 20th-century classic American musical (both stage and screen) in songs, stories and social history. We guide participants in learning about and making personal connections with the art form’s past through local live performances and school programs, and in national radio broadcasts, online discussions and recordings.
