The Theater Project was founded in 1971 as a non-profit community-based theater in Brunswick, Maine. For over 40 years we have provided innovative, entertaining performances, designed programming for members of our community with special needs, and taught theater to thousands of children from Maine to the Middle East and beyond. In 1986 The Theater Project purchased an important historical landmar
k as a facility to entertain and educate the members of this community well into the next millennium. Built in 1827, the building is located on School Street in the heart of downtown Brunswick, and continues to serve as an integral part of the community. The purchase of this beautifully preserved building has enabled The Theater Project to grow into a small but thriving year-round theater facility. The Theater Project is committed to offering the community stimulating performances that encourage audiences and participants to think and feel; to laugh and cry. We are equally committed to an educational program that enables participants to take risks, to discover their creative spirit while problem solving and working together, and to take responsibility for what they accomplish.
