Lakewood Theatre Company Presents
The LostTreasures Collection
The Lost Treasures Collection is a new series of obscure and rarely performed musicals presented in concert on our Side Door stage. Picture Portland’s foremost performers presenting some of the most beautiful, comedic and witty songs of musical theatre free of sets, props and the usual trappings of a fully staged production. Our inaugural season features these romantic fables:

When she is lured away by a handsome young gigolo, the baker loses all zest for life and baking, throwing the Provencal community into chaos. Songs include: “Chanson”, “Proud Lady”, “Where is the Warmth?” and the smash hit “Meadowlark”.

the ability to enchant the hardest of souls... and a nose bigger than can be imagined. Cyrano secretly loves Roxan-na but when she tells him of her interest in the handsome yet inarticulate soldier Christian, Cyrano helps the young man woo her by acting as his muse and penning eloquent love letters. Songs include “The Nose Song”, “Roxanna”, “Bergerac” and “You Have Made Me Love”.

The citizens of Greenwillow (a cast of quirky, fablebook characters) must trust their hearts, to help Gideon listen to a new “call” and find his way back home for good.
