Testimonials

  • As a parent, I’ve been continually amazed by the impact OMTI has had on my daughter. From her first show, she felt welcomed, supported, and inspired—and that has only grown with each production. What stands out most is how much she’s developed not just as a performer, but as a person. Emily, Makenna, and the entire staff create an environment that blends high expectations with genuine encouragement. They challenge each thespian to grow while making the experience joyful and meaningful, and it’s clear they truly care about every individual journey. While each production is polished and impressive, what matters most is who my daughter is becoming—more confident, expressive, and connected to a community that lifts her up. We are incredibly grateful to be part of it.

  • Being part of OMTI means so much to me. From my very first show, I felt like I had found a place where I truly belonged. It’s not just about performing—it’s about being surrounded by people who encourage you, challenge you, and believe in you. OMTI pushes us to be our best while still making rehearsals fun and something I always look forward to. I’ve grown so much in my confidence, not only on stage but in who I am as a person. I’ve learned how to take risks, support others, and be proud of the work I put in. OMTI has given me friendships, memories, and experiences I’ll carry with me for a lifetime. It’s more than a theatre program to me—it’s a second home.

  • Our family has been with OMTI for about four productions now. While my teens have formed meaningful friendships and found incredible mentors, we have also come to deeply value the high level of instruction and education the program provides. It is a well-rounded company that not only emphasizes family and fun, but also ensures that its cast members are continually growing and becoming the best versions of themselves.
