MPTG Returns to The Stage

By Laura Steiner, Milton Reporter Staff

The Milton Players Theatre group (MPTG) is returning to the stage next month for their first season following the COVID-19 pandemic.  They’ve been operating since 1979, making this year their 43rd.

MPTG pivoted to online, offering video sketches, and a taped reading during the hiatus. They are very happy to be back on stage. “We love putting on shows,” Social Media Director Scott Sykes said of the two-year break.

They’ve put together a 2022-2023 season they hope has a little something for everyone.

• Clue is a comedy based on the board game, and movie starts the season off from November 4-6, and November 10-12.
• Steel Magnolias, a Comedy-drama from Robert Harling runs from February 3-5, and 9-11 2023.
• The Foursome by Norm Foster ends season with shows from May 5-7, and May 11-13.

All three shows will be playing at the FirstOntario Arts Centre- Milton in the Minmaxx theatre.  Tickets are available online, or by calling: 905-875-5399.  Box office hours are Tuesday- Saturday from 12-5pm

MPTG will offer a dining guide to different restaurants. “It’s not just buying a ticket to a show.  It’s buying a ticket to an experience,” Sykes said.  For more information on the Milton Players’ Theatre Group please visit their website
