Program areas at Lost Nation Theater

We adjusted programs to the covid crisis and restrictions. All scheduled shows, youth camps and events were cancelled. Program format changed from live, inside due to covid stopping inside performances. The city hall building was closed to the public march 18, 2020. Being housed on the 2nd & 3rd floor of city hall forced us to shut our city hall business office and to cease doing live performances. Staff was furloughed march 31, 2020: directors april 20 - may 21. Accounting apr 1, 2020- aug21.directors started immediately working to gain skills & equipment to stream videos of previous shows online, making and streaming interviews of actors, technicians and designers, and creating and holding online Theater skill building workshops. They worked very hard to create materials that would provide the Theater a lively online present and maintain our audience base. In 2022 the Theater reopened with live performances and youth camps.
