It is LCT’s goal to cultivate continued interest in the theatre & performing
arts, and to bring new talent center stage!

In 2009, we produced Ye Gods!, written by Denton residents Bill Kirkley and
Sean Frith (December 2009).


In 2010, we brought audiences the hilarious and heartfelt Christmas Break by
Cynthia Crenshaw. Cynthia, a Dallas resident, won our 1st Annual Playwriting
Contest.


This year, our 2nd Annual Playwright Winners were Aaron Schultz and
Benjamin Keegan Arnold - their buddy comedy No Late Fees won the 2nd
annual contest.

Who knows, maybe next year, you’ll see your name here...
