Production History
30 Plays in 30 Days
In June 2020, to celebrate our 30th Season despite the pandemic, The Public Theatre’s social media accounts took a trip down memory lane and shared never before seen photographs and fun facts from each of our previous 29 seasons. One season per day. You can view these posts in a Facebook Album.
On this page we have continued to provide links to our recent seasons so the journey is complete.
We encourage you to take that walk now and remember your own unique memories and experiences of The Public Theatre and to please consider making a donation to help support our future.
1993-1994 Season
Christopher is hired as the Artistic Director. He pays his own way from New York to Maine to interview for the job and becomes the only full-time paid staff position along with a part-time technical director who designs, and builds sets and lights for every show.
1992-1993 Season
The Public Theatre rents the Ritz theatre and volunteers from the entire community individually reupholster every seat in the house in time for the theatre’s opening performance of Scapin. The paint was still drying on the walls as the lights went down.
1991-1992 Season
Did you know that The Public Theatre’ first show, That Championship Season, was produced in a borrowed space in the Auburn mall?
