Performance Troupe
Many of our students participate in MTC's Performance Troupes. In addition to their required technique classes, they have weekly rehearsals for our full scale productions. Our students perform musicals in our black box theater, as well as professional theaters like the Woolfe Street Playhouse, Footlight Players Theater, and Charleston Music Hall. They've also had opportunities to perform at Disney World, workshops in NYC, workshops at our studio with Broadway performers, the iTheatrics Junior Thearer Festival in Atlanta, the Children's Day Festival, ArtFest at Towne Center, and more!
We have 3 different levels of Troupe: Players, Jr. Company, and Company. This year's Company students will perform Into the Woods, Jr. in November and an abridged version of The Lion King in June, both at Footlight Theater. Our Jr. Company students will be performing The Little Mermaid, Jr at Footlight in February, and The Jungle Book, KIDS in our black box theater in the spring. The Players will make an appearance in Jr. Company's The Little Mermaid, Jr., and will perform 101 Dalmatians, KIDS in our black box theater in April!

"All of your favorite characters—Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack (and his beanstalk), and the Witch—meet and interact in this whimsical original story. The musical centers on a baker and his wife who wish to have a child; Cinderella, who wishes to attend the king's festival; and Jack, who wishes his cow would give milk. When the baker and his wife learn that they cannot have a child because of a witch's curse, the two set off on a journey to break the curse and wind up changed forever.
