The Empire State Musical and Theatrical Production Tax Credit Program is designed to encourage musical and theatrical production companies to conduct pre-tour activities, technical rehearsals and to perform shows at locations in Upstate New York, home to some of the premier regional venues for musical and theatrical production.

The Program provides incentives for qualified production companies to conduct technical rehearsals and other pre-tour activities and perform shows in qualified regional theaters throughout Upstate New York. The program encourages the use of these Upstate entertainment venues, making them competitive with other venues located in Northeastern states that offer similar tax incentives to musical and theatrical productions.

Program credits of $8 million per year can be allocated and used to encourage companies to perform and conduct technical rehearsals and other pre-tour activities in Upstate New York, to help stimulate the Upstate economy.

Qualified companies may be eligible to receive a fully refundable credit of 25 percent of certain production and transportation expenditures directly related to the technical period* at a qualified facility in Upstate New York.

Expenses associated with performing a show for a paying audience in a qualified production facility are eligible if the show in question has not been previously performed in any facility, other than a qualified production facility, subsequent to the completion of the technical period* in a qualified production facility.

Advertising, marketing and publicity, compensation for services performed at a location other than a qualified production facility, and any expenditure for the technical period* of the musical and theatrical production incurred at a location other than a qualified production facility are not eligible expenditures.

*Technical period means those activities performed by technical personnel of a qualified touring production prior to commencement of a tour, including, but not limited to, those personnel responsible for lighting, sound, wardrobe and props.
