In 1995, a small group of working professional singers and actors met to create a guild for musical theatre artists; a forum where members could showcase their creative talents and present seldom produced musicals as a preservation for this unique American art form.

Now in its 28th season, and based on the high quality of their work, MTG has been afforded the first producing rights to present the works of many musical theatre masters including Stephen Sondheim, Adam Guettel, Andrew Lippa, Jason Robert Brown and Ahrens and Flaherty.

Their tandem mission of exposing new audiences to this original American art form has led them to a partnership with the Music Center of Los Angeles Education Division with three in-school assemblies that uses musical theatre as a teaching tool, and an outreach program that affords local high school students free tickets to their main stage concerts.
