Sometimes it's ok, not to be ok!
Mental Health Awareness week This week in the UK it is Mental Health Awareness week. This year's theme is kindness, with the week running from 18 - 24 May. Mental health awareness is particularly important to all of us at MMTC, we believe that by being involved in the world of performing arts, getting people out and into a community has an incredibly positive effect on all members.

We can't wait to see YOU!

Leave a (ghost) light on...
The ghost light is a light that gets left switched on, on the stage while the theatre is empty. It is usually a single naked bulb on a stand placed downstage centre. The primary reason for leaving a light switched on is of course safety. However during these strange and unknowing times, it is a comfort for us to know there is a light on, a light ray of hope during dark and dismal times.
