This is Erin writer of the post and AD of MPTC. I would like to further explain that line- because I have no wish to insult the great work that Theatre @ First does in Somerville. I merely meant that there really isn't a large amount theater in Somerville generally. There are only a few available venues and Theatre @First is, as far as I know, the only company in the Greater Boston Area that makes its home in Somerville. Theatre @ First does great work and has, what I'm sure will be, a fantastic Importance of Being Earnest coming up soon directed by my dear friend Ron Lacey, but I think we could all agree that Somerville could use more theatre in general. One company is hardly an abundance compared what is all around Boston, and in that park specifically many residents told me that had not known there to be performances of that nature there before. So I do apologize for any offense. That was not my intention.
