The Harbor Theater was created in 1925, when a group of like-minded actors formed the Harbor Playhouse Company. The troupe performed about four plays per year until the Great Depression. Then in 1935, the group reformed under the name Little Theatre Corpus Christi. In 1948, the organization incorporated. The group officially changed its name in 1976 to the Harbor Playhouse Company.
