Our Story

(Part of) the cast of King of Crows II: Return of the King celebrate at the Snug (rip!)

Started at Mama’s Crow Bar in 2011 by a group of local playwrights as an opportunity to see their creations read by actors to support their creative process, and inspire new voices.

The Crowbait Club has evolved into a significant fixture in the Southern Maine Theatre scene. Plays that originated at Crowbait have been produced across America, and beyond; some at short-form festivals, others have evolved into longer pieces which have been produced in other venues.
