Maine Edge advances ‘Theater of War’ performance
The Maine Edge published a University of Maine news release announcing the UMaine Humanities Center and several area sponsors will present a performance and audience discussion on the effects of war Nov. 12. Outside the Wire, a social impact company, will perform “Theater of War” at the Bangor Opera House at 131 Main Street from 7 to 9 p.m. “Theater of War” is an innovative public health project that presents readings of ancient Greek plays, Sophocles’ “Ajax” and “Philoctetes,” as a catalyst for town hall discussions about the challenges faced by service members, veterans, their families, caregivers and communities. A free bus will bring UMaine students between Orono and the Bangor Opera House for the performance.
