About
The Lakewood Theater is a theater complex at 76 Theatre Road in Madison, Maine, on the shores of Lake Wesserunsett. Founded in 1898 but only properly developed in 1901, it is one of the oldest summer theaters in the United States. In the 1920s and '30s, the theater was one of the major off-Broadway stops, now hosting the community theater productions of Curtain Up Enterprises. The main auditorium is located on a former 1882 religious camp meeting sanctuary that was extensively altered in 1925–26 to accommodate the theater. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1975.
