The Arts Are Basic to Life

What happened to Stage East after Pier Gynt? In the conclusion to Setting the Stage, we dive into the arc of the last three decades of art and theater in Eastport.

Pier Gynt turned the subtext of Eastport into text by adapting a play to fit the town. But art is always shaped by the place it was made and the people who made it, which is evident by the way Stage East has grown and changed over time. This is the end of Setting the Stage, but still somewhere the middle of the full Stage East story. Thank you for listening.
