Seeing a need for great theater in the Corcoran neighborhood, Corcoran Park Players was established and staged productions from 1982-2016. After our tenure at Corcoran Park, we played in assorted other venues. After 35 years, in 2017, we renamed our organization, Classics Lost 'n' Found Theater Company to continue providing great theater to local audiences. We've still producing while other theaters are long gone. When you see a CLFTC production, you see what we're all about.
Our mission has always been on producing great productions, be they popular recent works; plays to be rediscovered by classic playwrights or area/world premieres of new works. We've always been open to diverse casting and inventive staging, being flexible with sets, costumes and lighting while being dedicated to the entertainment aspect of the production!
Classics Lost 'N' Found Theater Company is pleased to announce its 2024 season. In the Spring, we'll present the delightful 1892 drag comedy, Charley's Aunt by Brandon Thomas. Set at Harvard in the 1920s, it's an hilarious mistaken identity comedy to be directed by Steven LaVigne.. Our summer production is a play to be announced, as will be the one-acts we will present at the FastFest in Cloquet next summer. One of the greatest thrillers of all time, William Shakespeare's "Scots Tragedy" of Macbeth, to be co-directed by Noreen K. Brandt and Greg Bastien. Keep checking for production dates. We'll keep you informed as they develop!

The original script for Frankenstein was written as a children's show performed by Powderhorn Theater Arts about a decade ago. I was drawn to the beautiful, descriptive aspects of the novel. Using no props and little scenery, the production will take you into the world of Victor Frankenstein and his Creature. Your imagination will be challenged as the story unfolds. It's a perfect way to start your Hallowe'en Season!
Last year's smash hit holiday comedy, A Christmas Carol Krampus returns for an exciting for performances! Laugh along with The Grinch, the Elves, Frosty the bartender and more. Not a show for children, but a delightful and entertaining show for adults!
