BDN reviews School of Performing Arts, Emera Astronomy Center production
The Bangor Daily News published a review of “Constellations,” a joint production of the School of Performing Arts and Emera Astronomy Center. British playwright Nick Payne applies string theory to an evolving relationship between two lovers in his awarding winning one-act, according to the article. Marcia Joy Douglas, an associate professor of theatre, is directing the production, and UMaine’s Innovative Media Research and Commercialization Center is providing projection design and technology by Gene A. Felice II. Douglas’ decision to present “Constellations” in the Emera Astronomy Center’s M. F. Jordan Planetarium allows theatergoers to collide with time, space and the characters, the article states. “This production of ‘Constellations’ is a theatrical experience not soon forgotten,” the review states. The Maine Edge also published a review of the play.
