Mad Cow Theatre Mad Cow Theatre now in our 22nd season, is downtown Orlando’s destination for professional theatre.

MCT was founded on the belief that the theatre is a dynamic and powerful means of social understanding, as well as a hugely entertaining art form.

Through the combination of passionate, skillful acting and compelling, insightful writing, nurtured by an attentive and ever-changing process, Mad Cow presents entertaining works of theatre to an ever-widening audience — promoting, enhancing, and celebrating the human condition through art.

With a passion for both classic and contemporary plays representing the best of American and world literature,

MCT is committed to story-telling with no boundaries, to a wide range of audiences. MCT attracts the area’s most talented performers, designers, and directors. A mainstay of the company is its dedication to the process of creating theatre, incorporating in-depth rehearsal and research periods along with a nurturing collaborative process. Awards include Arts Innovator of the Year (United Arts of Central Florida), Best Place to See a Play (Orlando Sentinel) Best Live Theatre (Orlando Weekly), Best Local Theatre Company (Orlando Magazine), and Best Performance Theatre (Orlando Business Journal).
