Mainers tend to be creative and innovative folks, and Centre Streeters are no different. In March of 2000, when the Covid pandemic hit town, we all scurried to our safe homes and Zoom screens. It wouldn't last long, we told ourselves. But meanwhile, what to do? What to do?

Somehow a Zoom production of "The Amazing Interplanetary Adventures of Flash Gordon" sounded like more fun than a paint-by-number of cocker spaniels. So off we went, and we are—inexplicably, some would say—still at it.

Thanks for supporting our 2023–24 season!

Check back here in September to learn about upcoming shows!

Imagine stretching out in a comfy chair, closing your eyes,
and being transported back to the 1940s — the golden age of radio.
Just think of it as a podcast on steroids!
