2024 – 25 Season
We kick off another great season of professional theatre with a special presentation of Late and Alone: An Intimate Portrait of Johnny Cash, in July. September brings American Idol Finalist, Julia Gagnon in her JULIA: Here in Maine Tour and our annual presentation of the Manhattan Short Film Festival. Our Subscription series starts in October with an extended run of the hilarious Off-Broadway comedy Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors.
