"This season MAT is exploring the complex motivations, morality and nature of villainy. Who are the villains in our families, culture and memories? Do they create us? Motivate us?
​
Perhaps they are us.
​
This season we are bringing a classic musical tale, an exciting modern play and a timeless drama to Orillia audiences."
Stevie Baker, MAT Board President

The Thanksgiving Play
By Larissa FastHorse
In this sharp, satirical, comedy, the first play produced on Broadway written by a Native American woman, four (very) well-intentioned theatre people walk into a high school drama classroom. The work at hand: creating a First Thanksgiving pageant for elementary school students to celebrate Native American Heritage Month that won’t ruffle any feathers.

Gypsy: A Musical Fable
Book: Arthur Laurents | Lyrics: Stephen Sondheim | Music: Jule Styne
Suggested by the memoirs of Gypsy Rose Lee
Original Production by David Merrick and Leland Hayward
Entire production originally directed and choreographed by Jerome Robbins
Often referred to as the greatest American musical, Gypsy follows the dreams of supreme stage mother, Rose, as she tours her growing children through the vaudeville circuit of the 1920’s and the ever evolving demands and desires of show business. Based on the real memoirs of striptease legend Gypsy Rose Lee, Gypsy is a fascinating tale of greed, ambition, selfishness, showbusiness, and self-discovery.
