Center Theatre hosting Maine theatrical premiere of ‘Bastards’ Road’

DOVER-FOXCROFT — The Center Theatre in Dover-Foxcroft announced that it will be hosting the Maine Theatrical premier of the award-winning documentary, “Bastards’ Road.” The documentary follows Marine Corps veteran Jonathan Hancock who served in the 2nd Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment – nicknamed The Magnificent Bastards. Hancock undertook a 6,000 mile walk across the United States to visit his fellow marines and the families of his fallen comrades. He uses the solitude of the road and the company of those he visits to successfully manage the wounds of war that never fully heal.

“The film has won numerous awards,” said Patrick Myers, the Center Theatre’s executive director, “Mr. Hancock’s remarkable honesty, insight and humor and his incredible journey are truly inspiring. We’re very proud to be the first Theatre in Maine to host a theatrical screening of the film.” 

The film will be showing daily at the Center Theatre from Aug. 20-26. The schedule, as well as advance tickets, can be found at www.centertheatre.org, by calling the Theatre at (207)564-8943 or by visiting the Theatre at 20 East Main Street in Dover-Foxcroft between the hours of noon and 7 p.m. The Center Theatre is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization with a mission to make arts, education, and entertainment accessible to our rural communities.
