This is NOT a learning environment whatsoever. I've been doing their summer camps for 8 years now and not ONCE have I landed a main role. They refuse to tell you how to fix your audition and act like its no big deal when kids with self confidence issues are given minimal roles and end up crying for hours. One girl even committed suicide after the week. This is NOT A PLACE FOR YOUR CHILDREN. STAY AWAY AT ALL COSTS
its been a great experiance for u guys coming to hoopa ca
The service staff were amazing and the crew the performers were top notch
Well at first I was Leary to go,we are not exactly the type of people to like live theatre and its missoula not exactly a huge town. We did not know what to expect really. My daughter had to write an essay on a play she is in the 7th grade and the only show that was playing was leading ladies, it was pg13 so I figured what the heck. Well it was a fantastic experience. I was really surprised by the quality of acting and props and the whole atmosphere. My only complaint was the seating doesn't give you much leg room for a 2 hour play but the entire atmosphere made up for it. I even threatened to make my husband take me out again. Loved it very much. Thank you for a great experience.
I am in the play Marry Poppins and the people are amazingly polite and amazing!
Went to see Rapunzel. This was the end of a camp my grandson was in. These kids learned all the parts in a week of camp. It was great. There are several more of these this summer. If you want something to do for a low price tickets are just $5 for these performances.
Wonderful productions in a fantastic building.
The building itself is very cool with a lot of neat architectural touches.
They do a great job putting on productions and our kids have performed in several.
They are also very active in the community as well as traveling all over.
Home of the Missoula Children's Theatre and a fleet of little red trucks! Wonderful plays and wonderful people!
The staff and security was very rude and offensive not respecting anyone or their personal space and a basic level of decency. The show was enjoyable and the aesthetics were on par.
A wonderful place with lovely staff and artists! I had a blast
HORRIBLE! GET THEM OUT OF OUR PUBLIC SCHOOLS! THIS IS NOT learning environment....STAY AWAY!!!!!
I love this place! This theatre is like a family, who kind, considerate, and works hard! Probably my favorite place in Missouka
MCT puts on some amazing productions for the size of Missoula. They have a lovely theater with great hosts.
First time in MCT. Kids put on a fantastic show. I will definitely be back for other shows.
Missoula Community Theatre is part of the umbrella of MCT Theatre for the Performing Arts. The Community Theatre provides shows locally between September and May. The facilities are impressive, intimate, comfortable, and volunteering in all compacities has been a really excellent and rewarding experience.
Great asset to the community. Reasonable prices and wonderful talent.
You have to take this as your child's first experience preforming on stage. Especially if they are young. The end play is a little corny and pushed along but you have to remember that they only get to practice at the most 5 days. Many only 4. It was a good experience for small children to learn how to be loud and dramatic and in front of a crowed. The larger more important roles are given to older high schoolers. Which is understandable since they have to have there lines down and ready in a day or two. I had a 10 year old that loved it. She had maybe 6 lines but learned how to say them loud and with expression. I had a 7 year old that thought it was fun but was done by the end of the week. He does say he would do it again next year. I also had a 5 year old who didn't make the cut and was upset about it. But I see that to as a growing experience as well. She wants to try again next year and will be bigger and better. The audition itself was certainly beneficial to her. So, don't expect the world but was worth the week of our lives.
Called MCT for "Missoula Community Theatre" as well as "Missoula Children's Theatre." A very nice space, a small comfortable theatre, that does all kinds of wonderful and nice productions. Something you will want to follow the events going on, if you live in the community. Also offer summer camps for kids. My daughters did the Blackbeard the Pirate weeklong camp for 8 to 18 year olds, and did two performances. Said they had fun and want to do camp again next year.
We went to see Leading Ladies. An excellent work, to laugh from beginning to end. With really good performances. Congratulations!!
Affordable, clean theater, tasty concessions! Great opportunity to enjoy community theater!
MCT is fantastic. They have amazing children's programs and community theatre for grown up participation. Such an fabulous artistic addition to Missoula.
They know how to organize... know how to fit the part to those who pay attention and are expressionate... my dauggter who is only 7 has been in it two years and lovesn it.
I highly recommend "Happy Days - The Musical." The voices, acting and happy sincerity of the cast make this show a winner! The Fonz and Mrs. Cunningham and Pinky Toscadero are particularly outstanding in their musical voices.
We love the mct. I've been going for years with my mother, and now it's an experience I share with my wife and children. The smaller theater gives you a personal feeling like you are part of the show.
This is possibly the best kept secret of Montana. We have never been disappointed in the quality of the productions or the people associated with MCT.
A few years ago our grand daughter Amanda was offered chances to go to orchestra camp, leadership camp, space camp etc. Instead she chose Next Step Prep Camp with the MCT. A vigorous six week intensive to teach the art of production to young adults. They danced, sang, produced and preformed in an amazing period of time.
Kids from all over the world were there to learn about the theater. Afterwords, we asked if she had chosen wisely. Did she wish she had made another choice. She said that period was one of the best times she had ever had. She would do it again in a heart beat.
MCT is a treasure and we are very pleased to just be able to attend the productions locally and support their international reach.

One of the important things that makes Missoula special.
We only stopped in for a tour but the facility & its staff really have it going on.
This place is amazing! I have been preforming and watching plays here for about 5 years, and everytime I visit it reminds me of summer nostalgia. The shows are always professional, fun, and amazing! The actors do a wonderful job carrying the story, and the sets and music are always beautiful.
We are beyond fortunate to have this organization in Missoula. The Community Theater productions are top notch, and the Children's Theatre affords every child the opportunity to make friends and get up on stage. The summer camps for pre-teens and teens are terrific and well run, too. Bravo to MCT!
I love seeing theatre especially in our youth. Its an amazing facility and talent.
The show in the Community Theater is interesting and excellent.
This is a great great organization, providing awesome opportunities for children to participate in the arts.
There has been a truck with this name on it in our neighborhood all day hopping from house to house. I live in northern California. I am completely baffled as to how this works and why they would be here at 9:30 at night. Any suggestions?
The children's Theater is really great place really great plays
I performed as a child in Missoula Children s Theatre and now my daughter gets to perform with them as they come to her school. This is the second year she has participated and we love it! Kids learn so much so quickly,it is really quite amazing to watch the whole process from how auditions are handled to the week of preparation. I would recommend this traveling theatre group to any school organization, such a brilliant way to give your child a taste of the arts! Thank you MCT!!
Great shows! Lovely theater! The staff is nice and helpful.
Way better set up than the old theater, plus with the pit underneath the stage it puts the seats much closer.
This is a very fun place to visit. I would like it a little better if they allowed at least water in. It can be a little cramped when it's full, but I have always had fun and enjoyed the pay that I've seen.
I've been coming for about 6 years and I have never been disappointed!
They support the community, have great shows, great place to have an event
I have worked with this great organization since 2000. They are truly world class.
My granddaughter had the time of her life here and the people we met were great.
I love the Missoula Community Theater! Friendly staff and always delightful!!
Teaching children confidence, character and bearing. An extremely positive environment with instructors that are attentive and understanding. Bravo MCT!
MCT is a real diamond asset to Missoula. We attend several plays a year and the quality is always great for a community theater.
Wonderful productions, wonderful venue for special events, and wonderful people who work and volunteer there.
Performance was so entertaining, my family throughly enjoyed themselves. Parking was a challenge, show up early or be ready to walk.
Such a fun place to go see a play! Family friendly.
What an amazing place. The second you step into the theater hall, you feel ready for a show. It's got this feeling that cannot be described. It's the perfect size, seating arrangement, lighting. Everything feels so... artistically theatrical!
You gotta see it for your self.
What an asset to the community! The space itself is a beautiful venue for fundraisers or receptions and the theatre entertainment is never sub par.
This is an above average community theater. The facility is the best in the area. Out ous well supported by the community with most performance selling out. They appear to excel at getting young performers into their plays.
Really enjoy each performance. Nice staff and reasonably priced.
A wonderful venue for the America's SUPER Pageant and many other community events!
I So enjoy Missoula Childrens Theatre. My newest favorite production is Elf :)
Always a wonderful, community supported event. We take our daughter to about two shows a year and she enjoys the whole very traditional experience. The main events serve beer and locally baked goods. These are not Las Vegas shows by any stretch, but they are genuine and any lack of special effects are made up for by the enthusiasm of the cast and staff. If you take your date or family you will have an authentically good time.
Always a great show. Well worth the ticket prices.
