UNSUNGMUSICALSCO. INC. is a not-for-profit Production Company dedicated to the preservation of musical theatre through the presentation of infrequently performed musicals. It is the belief of UMC that the musical form must be advanced by looking to the musicals of the past, particularly those that are lesser-known. UMC does not seek to present these shows simply as they existed but rather to present them anew, treating each property as a new musical thereby providing a unique collaboration between the artists of today and those of the past.
