Play Selection Committee
Dear Elcee,
I have some ideas of plays that I’d like to see LCTC perform. Who do I give my suggestions to?
Dear Reader,
Thank you for asking. Actually, we have been asked this question quite a bit. The short answer is, the Play Selection Committee. Who are they, you ask?
The Lake County Theatre Company consists of many individuals who work together to bring to you, our patrons, the shows that we present. The Play Selection Committee does just that!
The members of the Play Selection Committee consists of anyone who is a member of LCTC and is interested in exploring different theatrical performances that may be of interest to our patrons. The committee starts looking at scripts in January/February for the season that will presented starting in July the following year. For example, in January/February of 2020, the committee will be looking to fill our 2021/2022 Season (July 1, 2021 to June 30, 2022). That seems like a long time, however, by the time the members read several scripts, discuss them, find directors for the shows, and research performance venues, they are often pressed for time to present the new season line up to the Board of Directors by December of that year.
Many people have asked how they can make suggestions of plays to LCTC. The answer is that you can attend a Play Selection Committee meeting at any time and let us know your thoughts. The meetings are publicized through our newsletter, on our Facebook Page, and on our website (LCTC.US). If you are unable to attend the meetings, feel free to send us an email at info@laketheatre.org.
Our goal is to continue to provide shows that our patrons are interested in seeing. Please, let us know your ideas!!
