Moss Hart and George S. Kaufman’s classic, YOU CAN’T TAKE IT WITH YOU, is eighty-six years young, and the latest revival at Portland’s Good Theater makes a strong case for the work’s perennial appeal. Directed by Brian P. Allen and featuring a cast of eighteen, most Good Theater veterans, this delightfully zany script, filled with wacky but loveable characters, delivers a timeless message about family and the secrets to true happiness.

The tautly paced, compactly plotted 1983 psychological spy thriller, PACK OF LIES by Hugh Whitemore, proves to be a cliff hanger for audiences at the Good Theater, where its recent revival, expertly directed by Brian P. Allen with a finely tuned ensemble cast, demonstrates the relevance of its message in the chaotic political context in which we currently live.

Good Theater continues its 18th season with the Portland premiere of the acclaimed British drama PACK OF LIES by Hugh Whitemore. The production opens February 12th and plays through March 8th, 2020 at Good Theater's home, the St. Lawrence Arts Center, 76 Congress Street, Portland.

Dramatic Repertory Company (Keith Powell Beyland, Artistic Director) presents the Maine Premiere FABULOSO by John Kolvenbach, directed by Daniel Burson, playing March 8 - 17, 2019. This premiere production will be presented at the Studio Theater at Portland Stage, 25A Forest Ave.

Portland Stage's antidote to the winter doldrums is a new production of Oscar Wilde's incandescent classic of comedy, The Importance of Being Earnest. More than a century after its creation, this quintessential comedy of manners proves a delicious and refreshing confection of perfectly crafted playwriting. For well over two hours Wilde regales his viewers with one bon mots after another, with pithy and poetic, wise and urbane, cynical and silly dialogue that delights with its energy and acuity.

'Check-in/Check-out', premiering March 6-10 at VAULT Festival 2019, is a new play devised by Outside Edge Theatre Company's ensemble of actors in recovery from substance misuse. The UK's only theatre company with a focus on addiction, Outside Edge has worked with performers in recovery for twenty years to create productions that examine issues related to substance misuse, addiction and recovery. Plunging the audience into the heart of addiction, 'Check-in/Check-out' presents the performers' personal narratives of recovery and positions these stories in context next to contributing social factors.

Anita Stewart's staging of Dickens' A Christmas Carol has been a beloved fixture on Portland's Christmas scene for quite some time now, and, indeed, despite changing casts, much of its appeal resides in its familiarity to audiences. On the December 23rd matinee, the venerable production got a fresh new uplift in the performance of Dustin Tucker as Scrooge.

Opening its 17th season, the Good Theater's stirring production of Simon Stephens' The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time takes the company to new heights of achievement. In a long roster of excellent work, this brilliant staging stands out as one of the company's finest accom;ishments. Minimalist in its staging, eschewing the bells and whistles of the original London and New York productions, Curious Incident packs a maximum punch with its intense narrative and stunning, star- quality performance of Griffin Carpenter in the central role.

Good Theater has kicked off its 17th season with the Tony Award winning Best Play The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time.

Tickets for these two performances along with all remaining tickets for other performances are now on sale on-line (www.goodtheater.com) or via telephone (207-835-0895).

Dishoom! has been a wonderful challenge to develop and then direct. Right from the start, I wanted to put a British Asian actor with a disability centre stage - something that we don't believe has been done before.
