The Neighborhood
Located in the rustic Masonic Hall in Somesville, the Acadia Repertory Theatre has been a center for the performing arts since 1973.
Mount Desert Island, situated on the eastern coast of Maine was first recognized and named by European explorers as early as 1604. The first recorded permanent settlement of this island was in 1762 on the Somes Sound fjord, just a couple miles from ART.
Somesville is a very small, extremely quaint New England town. You might have noticed that Maine license plates plainly say Vacationland. This is not an idle boast. Two thirds of Mt. Desert Island is comprised of Acadia National Park. We feel very fortunate to be able to do our work in such an environment.
ART is extremely grateful to the strong support shown by the many businesses that advertise with the theatre, the other arts organizations in the area, and the audiences who have been the real backbone of the operation. Please consider supporting this season’s advertisers:
