“Excellent productions in a beautiful space”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 18 April 2013

We subscribe to the Maine State Music Theater every summer that features excellently produced, directed, and choreographed imports from Broadway using Equity performers and local talent. The Pickard Theater is a beautiful venue; intimate, comfortable and well worth a visit in summer or winter.

5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 February 2013

Usually come to this awesome venue at Bowdoin College to see a fabulous show of The Maine State Music Theater. Not the case in winter! Tonight's show was "The Bobs".

“Mid-Coast Maine's Treasure!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 June 2012

We have subscribed the Maine State Music Theatre -- an Equity company staging 4 regular shows, plus 3-5 extra events, per summer -- for eight summer seasons now. IF you can get a ticket, you'll see an energetic production with very talented performers. Pickard Theater's stage is not Broadway-sized so the staging is always interesting. Their musical accompaniment is first... More

“Maine State Music Theatre a mini Broadway”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 July 2003

Pickard Theatre is the home for Maine State Music Theatre, a professional stock musical theatre company. (They are not affiliated with Bowdoin College.) Their first show this summer was a world premiere of Frank Loesser's Hans Christian Andersen. It was a truly wonderful show with beautiful sets, amazing costumes and the performers, well, they're the best I've seen in regional... More
