Welcome to our
86th Season
As president of Lake Charles Little Theatre,
I would like to personally invite you to join
us for our 86th season! I am excited about
our shows for the coming year, and even
more proud of introducing to our audiences
a roster of new directors who will be helming our productions this season: Randy
Partin (On With the Show!), Gabriel Brown
(Fences), and Frank Cooper (Lend Me a
Tenor). Our veteran director, James Johnson, will also be helming a show this season,
marking his 40th year directing at the LCLT
(The HoteL Baltimore). Break a leg, and
hope to “see you on the boards!”
Joseph Frazier, President
Lake Charles Little Theatre
On with
the Show!
Over 65 musicals have played upon the
many stages that LCLT has called home.
We’ve sung about widows and orphans,
kings and paupers, nuns and hoodlums, and
the list goes on. Our season opens this year
with a musical revue of some of our favorite
songs and dances from our past.
Directed by Randy Partin
Onstage September 8 — 23, 2012.
Lend Me a Tenor
This night in September of 1934 is the biggest
in the history of the Cleveland Grand Opera
Company – world famous tenor Tito Morelli is
to perform Otello, his greatest role, at the gala
season opener. Saunders, the harried General
Manager, hopes this will put Cleveland on the
cultural map. When Morelli finally arrives-drunk--it is too late for any rehearsal. What to
do?? Through a hilarious series of mishaps,
mistaken identities, costume changes, and misplaced amore, this farce spins out of control
onstage and off.
Directed by Frank Cooper.
Onstage November 3 — 18, 2012

This sensational drama brings us the story
of Troy Maxson, a former star of the Negro
baseball leagues who now works as a garbage man in 1957 Pittsburgh. Excluded as a
black man from the major leagues during his
prime, Troy's bitterness takes its toll on his
relationships with his wife and his son, who
now wants his own chance to play ball. Fences won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and
Tony Award for Best Play in 1987 and the
Tony Award for Best Revival of a Play in
2010.
Directed by Gabriel Brown.

The Lake Charles Little Theatre,
co-founded in 1927 by the remarkable Rosa Hart, is SWLA’s
oldest arts and cultural organization. We displayed art in our lobby before there was a local museum. We had an orchestra before
Lake Charles had a symphony.
We have given thousands of
Southwest Louisianians a chance
to be on our stage-FREE-for the
past 85 years.

In the lobby of a rundown hotel so seedy that it has
lost the "e" from its marquee, the residents, ranging
from young to old, from the defiant to the resigned,
meet and talk and interact with each other during
the course of one day. The drama is of passing
events in their lives, of everyday encounters and of
the human comedy, with conversations often overlapping into a contrapuntal musical flow. In the
resulting mosaic each character emerges clearly
and perceptively defined, and the sum total of
what they are—or wish they were—becomes a
poignant, powerful call to America to recover lost
values and to restore itself in its own and the world's
eyes.
