Another spectacular PTF season comes to close.

​

Three plays. Three extraordinary casts and crews. Three rooms full of people willing to show up, lean in, and let the work resonate. We are so deeply grateful.

​

This season asked hard questions — about the forces that shape us, the monsters we live alongside, the truths we’re afraid to speak. And night after night, you came ready to sit with those questions. That’s not nothing.

​

From the fierce, intimate world of THE MONSTERS — to the luminous, breathtaking voices of OCTET — to the searing, urgent confrontation of AN ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE — this summer gave us moments we will carry for a long time. The performances were extraordinary, and so were the audiences.

​

To every artist who brought their full self to this work: thank you. To our partners at Portland Stage Company, the Maine Irish Heritage Center, and the brand-new Crewe Center for the Arts at USM: thank you.

​

And to every single person who bought a ticket, brought a friend, joined a waitlist: this is yours as much as ours.

​

We’ll see you next summer.
