I apologize in advance if this is answered somewhere else.
I have a lvl 19 character (10 Wizard/9 Cleric/10 Mystic Theurge), When I gain level 20, I plan to take a 10th level in Cleric. If I take another level of cleric at level 21, do I progress as if I were a level 21 cleric because of those Mystic Theurge levels, or do I progress as a level 11 cleric and just not gain any spells?

It is my understanding that mystic theurge levels stack with both wizard and cleric in terms of "caster level" only. You will be a 11th-level cleric for things like turning just as you currently are a 10th-level wizard in terms of wizard bonus feats, your familiar and other such class abilties. You will however be able to cast spells as a 21st-level cleric/20th-level wizard when you reach 31st character level (See page 208-9 in the DMG).
Hoped that helped.

If I got it right that would be a level 29 character (core classes 10+9 and 10 levels of prestige class)... well beyond the epic starting level.

Yeah, your right. I got the levels screwed up. I meant 29th level character, what happens when you go from 30 to 31.

So then I would level normally as a cleric including my caster level, but would not gain any spell power, because I already have the spells of a lvl 20 Cleric right?

You would level as an epic character (with appropriate "epic save bonuses" and "epic base attack bonuses" (DMG 206), but with skill points, Hit Die, etc... as determined by the "epic cleric" entry (DMG 208).
If by "spell power" you mean "number of spells per day" you are correct, 20th level is the cap. Your "caster level" as you said, does increase to 21 for cleric, while your character only "turns undead" as a cleric of 11th level.
Getting ready to play Quicksilver Hourglass are we?

i think it would stack spellcasting levels, but not help your abilities, base attack bonus, saves, or anything beyond the norm.
