Based on the beloved classic by Lewis Carroll, Alice in Wonderland is a reimagining of Wonderland, with an unexpected twist ending. When Alice tumbles down a rabbit hole, she is immersed in a fantastical, wacky land. Filled with zany characters such as the White Rabbit, Tweedle-Dee and Tweedle-Dum, the Mad Hatter, the Caterpillar, the Mock Turtle, and the mysterious Cheshire Cat, Alice in Wonderland is the perfect play for young and old audiences alike. Get lost in Wonderland with Pizzarello’s adaptation of Alice in Wonderland. You’ll never want to leave the tea party!
Performances will be held June 14, 15, 20, and 21 at 7:30 p.m., and at 2:00 p.m. on June 16, 22, and 23.

When you live on Skid Row, nothing comes easy. Your job is drudgery, your love life’s a joke, and your bills are all overdue. But for meek floral assistant SeymourKrelborn, all of that is about to change when he discovers a strange and unusual plant. Suddenly business is booming, the boss is making him partner, and even his co-worker crush is looking at him differently. If only the plant’s appetite wasn’t so insatiable, and its food of choice so frighteningly disagreeable. A gleefully gruesome tribute to sci-fi/horror B movies, with a toe-tapping doo-Wop score from the composers of Aladdin and The Little Mermaid, this Off-Broadway hit comes back to PTC in a production that’s sure to be a scream.

This summer, the Bar Harbor Historical Society is sponsoring a series of dramatic readings with local actors, presenting the secret lives of four Maine writers through an exploration of their own writings about their same-sex relationships, including letters, poems, and memoirs. The readings celebrate Maine history and culture, and broaden our understanding of some of our most famous authors.
As a young woman, novelist Sarah Orne Jewett was deeply frustrated in her crushes on women her age, because, unlike her, they did not have a successful career that could support them. The only way for her girlfriends to escape from their families of birth was to marry men and raise families of their own. Her situation changed radically when Jewett met Annie Fields, a Boston widow and philanthropist who had inherited a publishing company. Their letters bear witness to a productive and enduring partnership.
