Fishermen’s Memorial Service
The annual Fishermen’s Memorial Service will be held on Saturday, August 8th at 5:00 PM . This Service is to remember and honor all of those who have lost their lives in the long history of Gloucester’s fishing industry. The Service starts with a procession from the American Legion, down Middle Street and onto Stacy Boulevard. Everyone is invited to join the procession. It is led by a line of drummers and many of those walking carry flowers to toss into the sea at the end of the ceremony to remember loved ones or hold boat oars carrying the names of Gloucester fishing boats, past and present.
Please join the Fishermen’s Memorial Service Committee in remembering those who lost their lives fishing from America’s oldest seaport.

Gloucester Stage Company Earns Multiple Elliot Norton AwardsFollowing Record-Breaking 14 Nominations
Gloucester, MA – Gloucester Stage Company received five Elliot Norton Awards at the 43rd Annual Elliot Norton Awards ceremony held Monday evening at the Huntington Theatre in Boston, following a record-setting fourteen nominations across multiple productions during the company’s 2025 season.
The recognition further solidifies Gloucester Stage’s growing reputation as one of Greater Boston’s leading midsize theater companies, with nominations spanning acting, directing, design, and production categories.
Gloucester Stage award recipients included:
Amanda Fallon (The Glass Menagerie) – Outstanding Lighting Design, Midsize or Small
Liza Giangrande (The Glass Menagerie) – Outstanding Featured Performance in a Play, Midsize
Valyn Lyric Turner (No Child…) – Outstanding Solo Performance
Doug Lockwood (The Glass Menagerie) – Outstanding Director, Midsize
The Glass Menagerie – Outstanding Play, Midsize
Gloucester Stage received nominations across three productions — The Glass Menagerie, The Garbologists, and No Child… — reflecting the company’s commitment to producing work that is artistically ambitious, emotionally resonant, and deeply connected to contemporary audiences.
“To have work recognized across so many disciplines — acting, directing, design, and production — is tremendously meaningful,” said Rebecca Bradshaw, Producing Artistic Director of Gloucester Stage Company. “As a small theater on Cape Ann, there is something incredibly gratifying about seeing the work being created here recognized alongside some of the region’s most respected companies. These nominations and awards reflect the extraordinary artists who bring their talent to Gloucester and the collaborative culture that continues to thrive here.”
Particular recognition for The Glass Menagerie across scenic, lighting, costume, and sound design categories further highlights Gloucester Stage’s growing reputation for producing visually and emotionally immersive theatrical experiences.
This comes as Gloucester Stage launches its 2026 season with the regional premiere of Bad Books by Sharyn Rothstein, followed by Harold Pinter’s Betrayal, the world premiere of Dalloway: First Love, and the regional premiere of Moon Man Walk by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright James Ijames.
As the company continues to expand its artistic profile and regional visibility, Gloucester Stage remains committed to producing bold, thought-provoking work that sparks conversation and connection.
