Theatre for Young Audiences

Theatre for Young Audiences (or TYA) includes any performance taking place in the presence of young audiences—consisting of, but not limited to—theatre, dance, music, puppetry, circus and physical theatre.

MCT’s annual TYA performance celebrates Arts in Education Week by inviting your whole family to experience our company of professional adult actors presenting this production for all ages.

MCT celebrates Arts in Education Week 2019!

Directed by Adam B. Ferguson

All the enchanting characters are here: Wilbur, the irresistible young pig who desperately wants to avoid the butcher; Fern, a girl who understands what animals say to each other; Templeton, the gluttonous rat who can occasionally be talked into a good deed; and, most of all, the extraordinary spider, Charlotte, who proves to be “a true friend and a good writer.” Determined to save Wilbur, Charlotte begins her campaign with the “miracle” of her web in which she writes, “Some pig.” It’s the beginning of a victorious campaign which ultimately ends with the now-safe Wilbur doing what is most important to Charlotte.

Thursday, Sept 12 @ 12PM

Friday, Sept 13 @ 12PM & 6PM

MCT is proud to join arts organization across America to celebrate this special week!
