Powered by GoogleI watched my grandson's performance at the end of theater camp week, and it was so enjoyable. I enjoyed the quaint setting of the theater in this hhistoric building.
Schoolhouse Arts Center is a hidden gem in Standish, Maine! The theater is full of heart, history, and incredible local talent. Every show we've seen has been outstanding—well-produced, entertaining, and full of passion. The old school building adds so much charm and character, and it’s always fun to explore before the show. A perfect spot for families, date nights, or anyone who loves community theater done right!
Great and very welcoming theater. Comfortable seats and plenty of onsite parking. We were amazed by the talented cast & team behind Freaky Friday. Congratulations to all on a wonderful production. Thanks to all at Schoolhouse Arts Center for all you do!👏👏👏👏
I enjoyed myself! Unfortunately, I wasn't able to make it on time and was about 7 minutes late. It was very funny, I walked into the building and it felt abandoned, but you could hear the actors in the theater. Most rooms were labeled, but the door to the theater wasn't. A lot of lights were off and it took me a few minutes to find the door that would take me into the theater room. It took me following my ears to the loudest door in a very dark room to guess which door to use. It was kind of fun like a scavenger hunt. I entered at the top of the theater and I wasn't able to get to my 2nd row seat without interrupting most of the audience's experience, so I decided to sit at the top. I had a lovely time. I would suggest that perhaps the theater door to be a bit more noticeable and labeled and maybe dimly lit for those who can't help but be a tad tardy or who need to use the restroom and find the door to get back in again. I wish there was a program so I could read about the play and the wonderful actors. I couldn't find anything there and didn't see anything on the website either. I'll do some more digging. I would certainly go back! I just had my second experience and it was absolutely fantastic! The staff couldn't have been more helpful. The play was spectacular and I had the best experience!! Definitely going again!
Noises Off was SO MUCH FUN! I do not understand how they pulled it off. Amazing! I like the way tickets can be paperless now.
