2 Christmas Stories, 1 Night
There is definitely something about the seacoast at Christmas time, with its lights twinkling on the water, the shingles adorned with wreaths and cobblestone walks dusted with snow. And the charm of Portsmouth, N.H., is always a holiday draw with its unique shopping and jammed packed arts calendar.
This Friday, the Players' Ring presents A Christmas Carol at 8p.m. The Players' Ring is the area's community theater group, dedicated to presenting quality theater at reasonable rates by providing an affordable performance space for local artists. A Christmas Carol starts Friday and runs through Dec. 23, Friday and Saturday at 8 p.m., Sunday at 7 p.m. with Saturday and Sunday Matinees at 3 p.m. An important note is this small group takes reservations ONLY BY PHONE and does NOT take credit cards.
The Seacoast Repertory Theatre is a not-for-profit, award-winning professional theater and school for the performing arts, and they offer a very Dickens A Christmas Story this Friday at 8p.m., which runs through Dec. 30.
