Freaky Friday One-Act Edition
When an uber-organized mother and her spontaneous teenage daughter magically swap bodies, they have just one day to put things right. Masquerading as each other, they must work together to solve the mystery of how to break the spell. By spending a day in each other's shoes, Katherine and Ellie come to appreciate one another in a way they never could have imagined. In the end, both learn the true power of love and the strength of the bond between a mother and daughter in this heartfelt and hilarious adaptation.
Based on the beloved 1972 novel by Mary Rodgers and the hit Disney films, Freaky Friday features a book by Bridget Carpenter - the co-executive producer and writer on the beloved TV hits, "Friday Night Lights" and "Parenthood" - and music and lyrics by Tom Kitt and Brian Yorkey - the Pulitzer Prize-winning composers of Next to Normal.

Bridging the gap between MTI's Broadway Junior musicals and a full two-act show, MTI's One-Act Edition makes producing a musical easy and fun!
Similar to our Broadway Junior model, accredited schools K-9 pay a flat fee of $695.00 and the license lets you perform the show as many times as you like for up to one year.
Non-accredited schools may also license the show by paying standard materials and royalty fees, but there is no age limit for your performers.
The materials (which are yours to keep regardless of your organization type), consist of 30 Libretto/Vocal Books (script and songs for the actors), a Piano/Vocal Score, an Accompaniment Recording that features the back-up tracks to use in performance, and a Reference Recording that contains the full score performed by an ensemble of actors to help your cast prepare for the show.
Concert Selections for Freaky Friday
MTI is not currently offering rental materials for this show. Please email concerts@mtishows.com with any questions.

Freaky Friday 1 Act Version
Can you tell me the cast breakdown for the 1 act version of Freaky Friday? The website says 10 + ensemble, but the breakdown gives several characters that I am assuming are in the full length. I need a male/female breakdown for the 1 act.

Any idea when this will be available today? I'd love to get the paperwork over to my school and make it official.

Will you make a Jr. version quickly?
I would probably do this show in May if you did. I am a middle school and have done several of your shows and am struggling to find the right show for my kids this year.
Thank you,
Perry
