2026 Special Show

KYMTC is thrilled to announce that we are staging a second show in 2026, a fun filled, silly, highly praised show called Something Rotten!. This fantastic show will be staged from September 26 to October 10, 2026, and auditions are open to anyone aged 13 and up!
 

Something Rotten! is set in the 1590s, where brothers Nick and Nigel Bottom are desperate to write a hit play but are stuck in the shadow of that Renaissance rock star known as Shakespeare. When a local soothsayer foretells that the future of theatre involves singing, dancing and acting at the same time, Nick and Nigel set out to write the world’s very first musical. But amidst the scandalous excitement of opening night, the Bottom Brothers realize that reaching the top means being true to thine own self.

Something Rotten features large song and dance numbers, and a wacky cast of over-the-top characters, each with their own moment to shine. Throughout its Broadway run, the musical received show-stopping standing ovations from audiences and 10 Tony nominations! 

​

KYMTC has previously staged special shows, including You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown (2008), 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee (2011), and Oklahoma! (2016). 
 

2026 is going to be a busy year! Stay tuned for more information.
