‘Peter Pan’ in Bangor

BANGOR – The Maine Center for the Arts at the University of Maine will present “Peter Pan” at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 13; and at 1 and 5 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 14, at the Bangor Auditorium.

“Peter Pan” is a classic musical adventure, complete with the Darling children flying across the stage, high-stepping pirates, the delightfully dangerous Captain Hook and the perennial charm of the boy who won’t grow up – Peter Pan.

It is a fun-filled tale of youth, joy and freedom, all captured in a lavish production of the Tony-Award-winning Broadway musical, complete with live musical ensemble.

Fly with Peter to the “second star to the right” and join the zany antics and the wistful wonderment of Neverland. It’s a magical journey theater-goers will never forget.

“Peter Pan” features the songs “I Gotta Crow,” “I’m Flying” and “I Won’t Grow Up” first heard in “Peter Pan” on Broadway in 1954 with Mary Martin as Peter and Cyril Ritchard as Captain Hook.

Tickets for the show range from $10 to $27. Call 990-4444 to purchase tickets.

Harvest supper for peace

BANGOR – The Peace & Justice Center of Eastern Maine’s 18th Harvest Supper will take place 6-8 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 13, at the Unitarian Universalist Church.

The supper is a time to come together for an evening of good food and friendship, and to celebrate the year’s fruits of labor for peace and justice.

This year’s Hands of Peace Award will be presented to Maine attorneys Lynne Williams and Phil Worden for their pro bono counsel and representation of more than 50 disobedience cases involving Mainers calling for an end to the war and occupation of Iraq.

“These two attorneys have devoted countless hours serving as legal observers of non-violent civil disobedience, provided legal representation and have informed activists about their rights and the possible consequences of nonviolent action,” said Dud Hendrick. “Through their efforts they have upheld civil liberties and have been powerful advocates for dissent so essential for a vital democracy.”

Musical entertainment will be provided by Waldo Caballero playing the zamponas, a South American Pan pipe.

Those attending are asked to bring a vegetarian dish made from the bounty of this year’s garden harvest to share.

Suggested donation is $10, $15 families, $3 under 12. For information, call 942-9343.
