"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

Loosely based on the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, Jesus Christ Superstar follows the last week of Jesus Christ’s life.

WROL (Without Rule of Law)
By Michaela Jeffery

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.
