Peppermint Creek Theatre Company

Peppermint Creek Theatre Company "Theatre that's as fresh as it sounds." Founded in 1995 and originally named the Peppermint Creek Players, PCTC performed one play a summer. When Mr.

The company is named after the creek that runs near founder Chad Badgero's childhood home in Mason, MI. As a fifth grader, Badgero was looking through old maps of Mason and found where his house would have been, and the creek was THEN called Peppermint Creek (it has since been changed-much more generically-to the name of the road it cuts through). This stuck with Badgero, and when it came time to

name the group, it seemed appropriate and personal. The first two productions were presented at Mount Hope Presbyterian Church, and then moved to the MSU Gardens Conservatory. From 1995-2000, Peppermint Creek established itself as a new, fresh, and vital performing arts group that took chances and believed in the power of theatre. Badgero returned from New York City, he brought with him the desire to completely establish PCTC as a non-profit organization with a full season of shows. Now in their ninth season of shows, Peppermint Creek has made huge strides in creating a new voice in Lansing. Peppermint Creek performances have consistently been recognized by critics, and PCTC has boasted some of the finest actors that Lansing, Chicago, New York, and beyond have to offer. Peppermint Creek Theatre Company continues to strive to produce classic and contemporary theatre that addresses vital issues in our society, raises awareness, and encourages dialogue while entertaining.
