Introducing MRTC’s 2025 - 2026 Season

The past can haunt us in ways that are hard to overcome. This is the case for two women, whose paths cross at a pivotal chapter for both. This vivid, emotionally charged work takes the audience through a stunning tragedy, a gripping mystery--and a powerful resolution that will stay with you... "In Praise of Sparrows" shows that there is light to be found, even after decades of darkness. 

This show is written and directed by a Member of the Mill Race Theatre Company community. Audiences will be part of the world premiere of this work.

PG-13: Death, Child Death, Suicide, Gunfire

Faithfully adapting the beloved fantasy novel by C.S. Lewis, this play follows Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy Pevensie: four siblings sent to live in the country during the London Blitz of WWII. They stumble into a wardrobe that acts as a doorway to the magical world of Narnia, and discover they are pivotal to a prophecy that will release the world from a forever winter and an evil witch. With the help of talking animals, mythical creatures, and Aslan the Great Lion, the four Pevensies must rise to the occasion to save this fantastical world. A timeless story of hope and wonder for all ages. 

PG: Fantasy Violence and Frightening Images

Power. Who has it? Who wants it? Who takes it? Join us for an evening of curated scenes and monologues exploring the theme of power from Shakespeare’s kings, soldiers, wives, and parents. If you are new to Shakespeare, never fear, our troupe has plans to break down the Bard for newcomers while sharing some of his greatest hits in a casual, theatrical performance. Appropriate for all audiences with special recognition for folks who are having their first Shakespeare experience!  

PG-13

Young Alex faces an unexpected adventure when the power goes out, leaving him unable to play his favorite video games. With the help of his quirky neighbor, Zoey, and a cast of memorable characters from his bookshelf, Alex embarks on a journey through the world of stories and the written word. Join Alex and Zoey as they navigate this imaginative quest and assist them in finding the missing letters of his book before it is too late.
