This historical comedy is a site-specific and audience interactive piece where the audience is treated as newly arrived airmen at the 762nd Air Force Radar Squadron in June 1969 and about to begin a 12-month tour of duty in North Truro.
Directed by Daisy Walker and written by playwright and Payomet Executive Director Kevin Rice, Under The Radar is described by the play's dramaturg, Dan Lombardo, as "Our Town meets Dr. Strangelove.” A fully-staged Actors’ Equity Association production, the show features Robin Bloodworth, Shabazz Green, and Paige O’Connor.
Under The Radar joins Payomet’s new humanities series, “Remembrances of the North Truro Air Force Radar Station,” curated by Dan Lombardo and inspired by the military past of the arts center, located at the Cape Cod National Seashore's Highlands Center. The series is being planned to include films, author talks, and Rice’s new play, among other community events.
