INSPIRING STORIES.
QUALITY PRODUCTIONS.
Driven by a passion for powerful storytelling and a commitment to artistic excellence, Merit Theatre Company & Orchestra was founded in 2017 to provide family-friendly entertainment in the Northern Kentucky/Greater Cincinnati area. We collaborate with talent from across the Tri-State area, and our productions are currently held at the Anderson Center in Cincinnati, OH.
We strive to cultivate a welcoming and uplifting environment for both participants and patrons; to offer opportunities for all ages, developing talent within our community; and to create art that is both entertaining and enlightening.
We seek to make a meaningful and lasting impact on the lives of all who take part in a Merit production—from audience members to cast and creative team members.

“The magic of theatre: it has the power to transform an audience, an individual, or en masse, to transform them and give them an epiphanal experience that changes their life, opens their hearts and their mind and the way they think.”
