Children's Theatre Company (Minneapolis, Minn.)

The Children's Theatre Company (CTC), a professional theatre company for young audiences, began as The Moppet Players in 1961 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, with a loan of $100, a room donated by an Italian restaurant and a crew of volunteer artists, technicians and administrators. It was the first full-time children's theatre company in Minnesota. The following year the company moved to an abandoned police station and introduced a program of instruction in creative dramatics, dance and theatre production. John Clark Donahue joined the company as a designer, teacher and associate director and became Artistic Director in 1964.
