Description:

The Criterion Theatre and Arts Center is a classic example of old style movie palaces that flourished in the early decades of the 20th century. Touring its expansive interior, you can almost hear the energetic slapstick performances of vaudeville greats that once graced its stage. Today, this cherished landmark is at the heart of Bar Harbor's artistic and cultural scene. After several months of reorganization and renovations, the Center will soon present a full schedule of compelling live stage productions including plays, musical performances, and concerts. In particular, the Eastern Maine Pops Orchestra for Young Musicians now calls the center its home. For a full listing of events, please visit the Criterion Theatre's website.
