7:00 PM - The film Walkabout will be shown at the Unobskey School, Main St., Calais. In this 1971 British film, “Walkabout”, refers to the Australian Aborigine tradition of sending 13-year-old boys, before the initiation to manhood, as a rite of passage, for six months into the wilderness, which they have to cross alone, proving themselves by using their survival skills. Survival as a rule of life is contrasted by the encounter between the Aborigine boy and two white children, brother and sister, for whom survival means finding their way out of the wilderness back to civilization. They survive and experience the life in the “Outback” almost like a family, almost forgetting their cultural differences. Beautiful photography takes us through the amazing, untamed wilderness of Australia and the story leads us to thoughts about values of civilization. Presented by St. Croix River Valley Arts Council and hosted by the Unobskey School in Calais. Everybody is welcome! There is no admission charge. Donations suggested.

7:00 PM - Eastport Arts Center, 36 Washington Street.
Opera House Arts at the Stonington Opera House (OHA) is pleased to present “Perdita,” a one man, multi-character show based on the life of Lewiston native and international activist Perdita Huston, in a statewide tour in November 2006.
“Perdita” explores the life of this pioneering Maine woman through the eyes of her son, Pierre Diennet, who wrote and performs the full-length, fully-produced play. Huston left Maine to study at the Sorbonne in Paris, beginning an international career that spanned five decades until her swift death from ovarian cancer in 2001. Her coming of age in Maine during the 1950s forged her into an early, “second wave” feminist and activist whose passion was the realization and defense of basic human rights for women of the global south. Diennet's script weaves his recollections of his mother, her two husbands, and her lovers together with his own movement toward understanding and appreciation for this complicated woman.
“Pierre’s stunning script and virtuoso performances illuminate his mother as a woman of tremendous energy, passion, and independence,” said Judith Jerome, the play’s director and co-artistic director of Opera House Arts.
Huston worked all over the world in many capacities, including as Peace Corps regional director for North Africa, the Near East, Asia and Pacific; and later as director for Peace Corps programs in Mali and Bulgaria. She was pioneering not only in her work, which included authoring four books, but in the choices she made and actions she took around her illness and death.
Diennet spent his young life following Huston as she traveled around the world promoting suffrage and civil rights. He had trekked through India, Pakistan, Algeria, Haiti, Switzerland, England and the United States before he was 16, always staying in a different house, never going to the same school. He portrays 14 characters in the play, which is told through the eyes of a son whose resentment at his fatherless and rootless childhood gradually grows into respect as he reviews his mother's life--and watches her die.
Pierre Diennet lives in New York City. He became interested in theater when he moved with his mother to London in the late 1980s. He has an undergraduate degree in theater from New York University's Tisch School of the Arts, as well as graduate training in acting from the National Theater Conservatory. He performs regularly in regional theaters around the country, including the Public Theater in Lewiston, and he appeared as the Moose Boy in Opera House Arts' 2004 production of “The Ferry Musicals” at the Stonington Opera House.
“Perdita” was first presented as a work-in-progress in April by Opera House Arts, first at the Stonington Opera House and then at the dedication of Perdita Huston's papers and books at the Maine Women Writer's Collection at the University of New England in Portland.
The 1912 Stonington Opera House, on the National Register of Historic Places, is open year round. Opera House Arts (OHA), a 501 C 3 community nonprofit organization, produces original, live performance events and films that celebrate and extend Maine’s cultural legacy; and that integrate professional performers with community members. OHA also screens first run and independent movies; hosts special community events and dances; and runs performance and community leadership-building programs for teens and adults.
