MTC, located at 509 Westport Avenue in Norwalk (behind Jones New York and Nine West Outlet), boasts a state-of-the-art black box theatre, rehearsal studios, scenic and costume design shops, dressing rooms, and beautiful lobby and public spaces.

"We could not be more excited to have a true theatre center right here in Norwalk," says MTC co-founder Kevin Connors. "The town has made us feel so welcome here and clearly value a resource like MTC where students and professionals work side-by-side in a space designed specifically to learn, develop and present the craft of theatre and musical theatre. What could be better!"
