Independent Musical Productions, Inc.

In 1993 a group of very talented professional theatre people formed a company in order to stage a production that co-founder Vivienne Atkins had long dreamed of bringing to the Huntsville stage. After viewing a riveting performance of Sweeney Todd at a cast party in 1985, Vivienne was motivated to pool the talent and creativity of Huntsville’s finest actors and technical artists for the project. The curtain went up, and Independent Musical Productions was born with its premiere production of Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street. There was a company, a fine production, and The potential for a great future.
