the Ogunquit Playhouse, one of Southern Maine's most important cultural landmarks, will celebrate 75 years of Broadway at the Beach in 2007.
Opening in 1933, the work and vision of Walter and Maude Hartwig brought an outstanding, star-studded performing arts company to Ogunquit. Continuing this tradition for almost five decades, John Lane, owner and producer of the Playhouse, sought to provide his audience with the finest professional theatre in our region. In doing so, he successfully placed the playhouse on the national cultural map. The Ogunquit Playhouse Foundation, formed in 1995, is now the proud owner and trustee of the Playhouse.
Today the Ogunquit Playhouse Foundation is a not-for-profit 501(c)3 organization
