July Melodrama
August Melodrama
Student-led show: "Eurydice"
July 12-28
100% Chance of Deceit
(Say it Ain't Crow)!
Who doesn't love a good rainstorm? Well... Pastor Joe, from the town of Tranquility, won't be caught dead in one... ever since that fateful night in the church bell tower. But sometimes you have to face your fears to hold on to what you treasure most in life. Will Joe's post-traumatic stress disorder threaten his happiness when evil comes to town? Come to Mantorville this July and witness the evil storm approaching the town of Tranquility!
August 2-18
Grapes of Woe or Please No Wining
In the art of winemaking, sometimes more gets crushed than just the grapes. Our stalwart hero is on a timeline to make a success of his wine business, so he can marry his long-time sweetheart, Morgan. But beware! There is a fly in the wine vat; a sneaky fly who has made it his business to see our hero fail, so he can steal the hand of fair Morgan. Juices ferment and corks pop as all strive to meet their goals.

Student-led Show: "Eurydice" by Sarah Ruhl
Directed by Kcin Siegele
Playing August 23-25
"Eurydice" reimagines the classic myth of Orpheus and Eurydice not through Orpheus's
infamous pilgrimage to retrieve his bride, but through the eyes of its heroine. Dying too
young on her wedding day, Eurydice must journey to the underworld, where she reunites
with her father and struggles to remember her lost love.
*****Not appropriate for children under 12 years old*****

Directors, Costumers, Set Builders ~ MTC Needs YOU!
We are actively seeking directors for our 2025 season. Our Artistic Vision committee and our Board will be selecting shows for the spring, fall, and holiday timeframes. We would appreciate prospective directors for our summer melodramas to also list shows that they would like to direct (or we can select from our large prior repertoire, if need be.)
We are also actively seeking people to manage costumes for shows in our 2024 and 2025 seasons, as well as set designers/builders for the same periods.
Interested parties should contact us at [email protected].
