We celebrated 25 years!
Pequot lakes Community Theatre (PLCT) was established in 1984. Judy Larsen, Sandy Johnson, and Joelle Burns were the three people responsible for starting PLCT. Judy directed, Sandy did the musical direction and Joelle did the choreography. It began with a variety type show called Bits Of Broadway which generated the seed money to produce subsequent shows. Tim Leagjeld and Renee Anderson were in the original productiona nad have been active in every musical since 1984. For the first seven years, a musical was presented annually. In 1991, Beth Selinger was interested in directing, so a winter production was added to the season. PLCT productionas are part of the GLAPA season. The fall show has traditionally been a musical and the spring show a nonmusical production. Recently, Nancy Waller has directed a summer show, so PLCT now produces three shows a year.
Some of our past productions ahve included: Cinderella, Mr. Roberts, Into The Woods, Seacret Garden, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, Lucky Stiff, Honk, Once Upon a Mattress, The Best of How To Talk Minnesotan, The Musical, The Foreigner and Don't Hug Me, Oklahoma, How the Other Half Loves, and the summer show was Lumberjacks In Love. This summer we will be performing a sequel to Don't Hug Me, Don't Hug Me County Fair, another Phil Olson show.
