Belfast Maskers Theater Company

About the Artist

The Belfast Maskers is an organization for the performing arts, devoted to a wide range of creative and challenging theater for the education and enjoyment of the community of both participants and audience members. We serve both educational and social needs by embracing people of all ages and experience levels, learning by doing and learning from each other. Inspired and organized by retired theater professor Basil Burwell, the Belfast Maskers had its first production in 1987. Since 1990 the group has been recognized as a 501(c)3 not-for-profit business. The Belfast Maskers currently produces four to five shows per year staged at the Basil Burwell Community Theater, 17 Court St. in Belfast, ME. More than 1,500 volunteers have participated in productions, many highly skilled professionals, others as a first time experience. All who wish to join this collaborate effort are welcome.
