The grant will help support CTC's production of the new musical "Milo Imagines the World." The musical is about a boy who passes the time on the subway imagining the lives of the other people on it. The play brings his illustrations to life along with music ranging from hip-hop to pop to country.

NEA will award over 1,100 grants totaling over $31 million during 2025. CTC is the nation's largest theatre for young people serving a multigenerational audience, and is the only theatre focused on young people to win the Special Tony Award for Outstanding Regional Theatre.
