I can't say enough good things about this organization and the fruit it produces!
It's easy to see how incredible the productions are (seriously professional quality for young performers!) —but what you may not see is the immense amount of thought, planning, creativity, and hard work that goes into making them happen.

Director Debbie Wilson & Angie Wilson brought it to this lucky audience, sound & technicals, & especially the costumes were amazing. What a treat this Season 13 of High Voltage is to our area & the greater...
Read moreI'd give it 6 stars if I could! My family has been performing with EDMT for a couple years now and have been hooked since the beginning. It's such a positive and supportive environment while also teaching the kids to work hard. The performances are top notch (and I'm not just saying since my kids perform in them as well)! We truly love the shows that our kids are too young to be in as well. Highly recommend for youth that are interested in performing in musicals and also recommend for others to just come and...
