Bangor’s first costume 5K!

Penobscot Theatre Company announces RACE TO THE STAGE, a 5K road race with a dramatic twist – runners in costume. This first-of-its-kind event, will take place Saturday June 15, in downtown Bangor, with runners staring at 9:00 a.m.

RACE TO THE STAGE promises to attract a spirited and diverse crowd as costumed runners and walkers take their creativity to the streets. RACE TO THE STAGE is designed to promote healthy living and celebrate the central role of the theatre in our community.
