Missoula Children's
Theatre (MCT), the nation’s largest touring children’s
theatre, has been touring extensively for more than 30 years now
from Montana to Japan, and will visit nearly 1000 communities this
year with 32 teams of Tour Actor/Directors. A tour team arrives
in a given town with a set, lights, costumes, props and make-up,
everything it takes to put on a play...except the cast. The team
holds an open audition and casts 50-60 local students to perform
in the production. The show is rehearsed throughout the week and
two public performances are presented on Saturday. All MCT shows
are original adaptations of classic children’s stories and
fairytales . . . a twist on the classic stories that you
know and love. Also included in the residency are three enrichment
workshops presented by the Tour Actor/Directors. Creativity, social
skills, goal achievement, communication skills and self-esteem
are all characteristics that are attained through the participation
in this unique, educational project. MCT's mission is the
development of lifeskills in children through participation in
the performing arts.
Missoula Children's Theatre is based in Missoula,
Montana and also runs many local programs. These include musical
theatre Day Camps and Performing Arts Classes for local children,
a summer residency Performing Arts Camp for students from across
the nation and MCT Community Theatre which creates an arena for
local talent of all ages to participate in large-scale productions
and attracts audiences from throughout western Montana.
