Back in 1936, nestled in the woods above the quaint village of Harrison, Maine, emerged a remarkable opera house, standing proudly on the grounds of an ancient deer track. Envisioned by the talented opera singer Enrica Clay-Dillon, this architectural gem was brought to life by the renowned theatre architect of the era, Harrison G. Wiseman. Tasked with the ambitious directive to craft the ultimate acoustically and technically flawless theatre, Wiseman fashioned a 300-seat marvel out of rose hemlock in the charming Adirondack Style, complete with exquisite hand-carved details and unparalleled sound quality.
This esteemed theatre, now enshrined in the National Registry of Historic Places, stands as a testament to timeless artistry and meticulous craftsmanship. As a non-profit entity, it continues to enchant audiences with a vibrant array of musical and theatrical performances, showcasing a diverse repertoire that captivates all who cross its threshold. Revered for its near-Broadway caliber standards and commitment to preserving the essence of live entertainment, Deertrees Theatre remains a cultural cornerstone in the heart of Maine, inviting patrons to revel in the magic of the performing arts.
