MDI Drama Team films one-act play for virtual festival BAR HARBOR Throughout February, the Mount Desert Island High School Drama Team has been preparing a one-act show titled “Love and Information” for the Maine Drama Festival, which will be broadcasted virtually this month. Based on the team’s regional competition results in 2020, they qualified to compete at the state level, but the event was canceled due to the pandemic. This year, students will not directly compete, but will perform virtually as part of a festival. “This one year, it’s not a competition, it’s totally just a festival,” said MDI High School Drama Director Casey Rush.
