Mount Notre Dame Theatre (MNDT) provides a well-rounded theatrical experience for students interested in both performance and technical theatre. We offer opportunities for students to study acting, singing, dancing, set design/construction, lighting design, sound design, properties design/creation, costume design/creation, stage management, choreography and make-up.
We are an inclusive program and are always looking to include more students and help teach the students “what they need for life”. We encourage student participation regardless of skill level and we offer opportunities for all students to hone their craft. MNDT is a 100% no cut program. If you audition for the show, you will be cast. This provides an opportunity for everyone to be on stage. As for the technical side. MNDT is an educational theatre with our technicians designing the set, build props and set pieces, and even running the show from the control booth.

GENERAL PROGRAM QUESTIONS
My child has never done theatre before can they still participate?
Yes!! We encourage everyone to join the MNDT Family. Whether you are interested in being under the lights or behind the scenes, you are welcome. Experience is not necessary. The only thing we ask you to prepare is a positive attitude and a willingness to work.
What if I don’t have time?
We are very flexible with the rehearsal schedule for the Actors in our company. Please be sure to list all conflicts on the Audition Form and our staff will do our best to accommodate. For the Technical aspect of our company we have what is called “Build Crew”. This gives you just a taste what it is like to be in MNDT, there are specific days that we call “Build Days” and these are completely optional so that you can join and just learn without having to follow the entire schedule.
Can male performers/technicians get involved?
Yes! We work with male performers/technicians from any area high school.
QUESTIONS ABOUT TICKETS
Please see our CURRENT SHOW page for more information on tickets and ticket sales.
Do you take credit cards at the door?
We do accept credit card at the Box Office. Please keep in mind there is a small convenience fee for processing the transaction.
How does seating work?
All of MNDT’s productions are a first come first serve basis. When purchasing your tickets online, you will see a layout and select your own seats that are available.
What is Will Call?
Will Call is located in the Box Office outside of the Performing Arts Center. This is also where you can purchase tickets on the night of the performance if available.
What do the ratings mean for tickets?
We follow the same guidelines as movie theatres for a rating system, to advise our audience of the subject matter in each production. Ex. Rated G, Rated PG, Rated PG-13, etc. Although most productions are family friendly, we try to challenge our students with more advanced subject matter and this may mean that some material may not be suited for ALL ages.
