Musical Theater Academy of Orange County is a non-profit learning academy for youth in the performing arts. During these economic times MTA has been hit hard and a small group have begun a valiant effort to keep their doors open.
If you are looking for something to do with the whole family this weekend consider seeing Hello Dolly, with a teenage cast and a few college students.
