Goin' Courtin' Has Never Been So Much Fun in Music Theatre of Idaho's SEVEN BRIDES FOR SEVEN BROTHERS

Bursting with the rambunctious energy of the original MGM film, Seven Brides For Seven Brothers is all boisterous fun and romance that harkens back to the glory days of the movie musical. A truly rollicking adventure that teaches that it takes a bride to turn seven unshaven unkempt brothers into manly gentle men and to turn desire into romance.

Set in Oregon in 1850, Seven Brides For Seven Brothers tells the story of Millie, a young bride living in the 1850's Oregon wilderness. Her plan to civilize and marry off her six rowdy brothers-in-law to ensure the success of her own marriage backfires when the brothers, in their enthusiasm, kidnap six women from a neighboring town to be their brides.

Music Theatre of Idaho, Inc. was founded as a non-profit, 501 (c) 3 corporation, in order to provide opportunities for individuals to expand and explore their interests in musical theatre production while presenting the community with professional quality, family-centered, affordable live musical theatre. Further, the MTI seeks to engage and educate persons of all ages through outreach programs centered on live theatre production.

Since 1997, the MTI has grown into a thriving arts force in the Treasure Valley. The MTI provides performance opportunities for over 200 persons each season and over 10,000 patrons are treated to the MTI's professional quality, affordable and family centered musicals each season. In five years' time the MTI has developed a subscription base of over 1400 season ticket holders. The Music Theatre of Idaho is absolutely committed to its original mission. Each year the MTI produces one or more "Arts in Education" productions for students of the Treasure Valley. Each season, thousands of area students are introduced to the magic of live theatre through the MTI's educational productions. The MTI is staffed by over 100 community service volunteers from 6 years old through senior citizen age. During production season MTI volunteers contribute over 700 community service hours per week.
