Bangor Symphony Orchestra will have the long awaited live performance of “The Warming Sea” at the Collins Center for the Arts as part of the Maine Science Festival on March 19 at 7 p.m. The evening will combine art and science, beginning with an overview of climate change in Maine from some of Maine’s leading climate researchers followed by a short film of interviews that Lucas Richman had with scientists, researchers and practitioners in the Gulf of Maine. Then the BSO will perform the symphony. For more information, visit www.bangorsymphony.org/show/the-warming-sea.

HOCKEY MOM

Spend an evening at the Bangor Opera House enjoying live theatre by the Penobscot Theatre Company. Hockey Mom, a play by local playwright Travis Baker, is set in the fictional Maine town of Clara where residents love blue tarps, hair salons and hockey (you might recognize these things from Baker’s previous plays!). If it’s winter, you’ll find kids out on the ice and their moms on the sidelines cheering them on. And Cindy is the ultimate Hockey Mom — she loves her son Cole and they both love hockey. She’ll do anything to help him become a pro-hockey player whether he wants her help or not. Don’t miss this world premiere. For ticket information, visit www.penobscottheatre.org.
