BLUE HILL, Maine – Dramatist Judith Jerome will share a "page to stage" talk at the Blue Hill Public Library, on Thursday, August 15th at 2:00 PM, about the process of staging Avalon, a new play at Opera House Arts in Stonington. Judith has been making and thinking about theater for forty years, and was the founding artistic director of Opera House Arts at the Stonington Opera House with Carol Estey.
Avalon is playwright-performer Melody Bates’ reimagining of the Arthurian legend, set in the outdoor sculpture park that is co-creator Peter Beerits’ beloved “Nellieville,” at Nervous Nellie’s Jams and Jellies in Deer Isle.
Another Stonington Opera House staff member, Arts Director of Communications Kate Russell, will be doing an Avalon-themed storytime at the library on Tuesday, August 13th at 10:30 AM. She will read King Arthur’s Very Great Grandson, by Kenneth Kraegel.
In addition to producing extant plays over the past twenty years, Opera House Arts has built a legacy of cultivating both original and site-specific work. These events are sponsored by the library and Opera House Arts in Stonington. They are free and everyone is welcome. For more information, call the library at 374-5515.
