MCT, Inc. is a non-profit organization based in Missoula, Montana, that oversees two related performing arts programs: a community theatre company and the Missoula Children's Theatre, recognized as the largest touring children's theatre globally. In Missoula, the community theatre stages a five-show season of in-house productions—musicals, comedies, holiday shows, and dramas—professionally produced and supported by volunteers and donors. The children's theatre component operates a nationwide touring model that casts local youth to perform after six days of rehearsal and travels to thousands of children and hundreds of thousands of audience members annually. Across its touring network, the organization reaches about 65,000 children through local casts, offers theatre workshops to more than 160,000 youths, and entertains roughly 750,000 people, touring to nearly 1,200 communities in all 50 states, Canada, and overseas. A recent development in 2026 involves a partnership with Capitol Civic Centre to present The Emperor's New Clothes, reflecting ongoing efforts to expand access to performing arts for communities.
