A Peek Behind the Public Theatre Curtain! (Senior College in the Community)

When you buy a ticket and see a show, what you’re seeing is just a fraction of the entire effort that goes into a production.

Ray Dumont, Executive Director of The Public Theatre, will offer participants a “backstage pass” into the professional theatre world and the many artists, builders, and supporters who make it happen.

A production doesn’t come to life by accident.  Each moment is precisely rehearsed.  Every element you see is carefully chosen by the director and a team of designers. 

Join in the discussion of the life of a production.  You may never see a show the same way again.

Ray Dumont is Executive Director of The Public Theatre in Lewiston, Maine.
