Welcome to MTA’s Lucky 13th Season! With eight full stage productions, a Holiday Show, Minis Program, and Benefit this season is sure to excite our audience members!
It takes so many people to make a production come to life. I give many heartfelt thanks to the hard-working production staff, amazing volunteers, our donors and sponsors, the Board of Directors, and our very talented performers.
Please continue to check our website at www.musicaltheatreofanthem.org, or sign up for our mailing list for detailed audition and performance information.
It is MTA’s hope that you will return to future productions, as audience members and performers, so that we may continue to offer “high quality theater to performers and patrons alike."

DIRECTOR'S NOTES
Thank you for coming to see our show! Junie B. Jones has a special place in so many hearts. Many of us grew up alongside her, learning life’s lessons together. One of my favorite things about this show is the different snippets of her life that we get to see and how we can tie them back to moments we had growing up - remembering what is was like to understand friendship, triumph, and defeat for the first time. I hope our show brings back some of those happy memories for you!
Something really special about working with these incredible kids has been getting to see them reconnect to who they were when they were younger. Watching them remember silly things they did when they were little and having them tell me stories about their lives has been an honor. Our world moves at such a fast pace and this show has helped all of us to slow down and remember the simple joys of being a kid - sugar cookies and kickball? Yes please!
This is my first time directing a show at MTA and there aren’t any words to convey how wonderful this experience has been. Thank you so much to Jackie, Shawna, Sarah, Julia, and Sierra for being the best teammates I could ever ask for. I’ve learned so much and can’t wait to do it again!
Thank you for taking time out of your day to see our show, wearing your mask, supporting this wonderful theatre and all of its amazing people. Enjoy the show!
