The Missoula Children's Theatre touring productions are complete with costumes, scenery, props and makeup. 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.
