Testimonials
"Just returned home to Overland Park from attending opening night of "Sunday in the Park with George". Bravo! I have not been to your theater nor was familiar with Musical Theater Heritage. The quality of your vocalists is outstanding. And so is the quality of your strings. I love how you have it "staged". My friends and I greatly appreciated your introduction of the show and the background you provided.
I look forward to attending more shows at your theater. Thanks again so much for this special opportunity!

"The fact that the show can be stripped down and presented as it is without losing anything shows the power of the material. The opening number sent chills up my spine and kept me on the edge of my seat for the rest of the evening."
Gabriel J. Livingston

MUSICAL THEATER HERITAGE
If you like musicals - you'll love MTH!
We are a professional theater company whose concert-style productions bring alive the American Musical like never before (read below).  The quality of the performers are top-rate, and the sound is outstanding.  We have comfortable, oversized, movie theater-style seats where you can enjoy a show up-close and from no further than 7 rows from the stage.  Audiences love it!  And we have a full bar and FREE parking.  We are confident that you will enjoy your visit...so much that you will happily refer MTH to your friends!

Money-Back Guarantee!
We are very confident you will love what we do.  IF you are hesitant, just try us just ONE time
and if you are not completely satisfied, we'll give you your money back!

The Power of Concert-Style
It's very similar to what you might have seen on PBS these past few years (i.e. Les Miserables, Carousel, Company, South Pacific, Candide).  You get the complete show, but the orchestra is on stage and the actors stand at studio microphones and perform facing out towards YOU in the audience (just like a concert!).  It makes for a powerful experience, and you will understand and enjoy the story & music like never before!

Our Radio Show

MTH actually began with the "A Night on the Town" Radio Series", a weekly radio show about the history of the American Musical, written and hosted by George Harter. In 1998 George created MTH as a 501c3 so as to syndicate the program on a national level and to entertain and enlighten new generations with the legacy of this American art form known as Musical Comedy.

Today the show is sponsored by the historic Algonquin Hotel in New York City, and is heard in Dallas, Atlanta, South Florida and on New York Public Radio. Locally, "A Night on the Town" is heard on KPR, at 91.5 FM, Saturday nights at 9pm. The program is also available online on the "A Night on the Town" website.

New York, New York!
Several times a year, MTH takes theater fans to New York for organized trips that include
Broadway shows, fine dining, four nights at the Algonquin Hotel and fascinating insights into
the history of Broadway and the American Musical.
