Today, we’re announcing our our new season and while none of us can believe that we’re launching a new season already, we’re also super excited for all of the shows coming to TMH. With over 20 new shows going on sale on June 3, I thought I’d reach out to our curatorial team to see what shows they were most excited to present. Read More

It’s May, the month when New Hampshire gardeners gaze longingly at their soggy beds and wish they could risk setting out the tomatoes. But no, it is not to be. Better to leave the dirt to the patrolling black flies and find another edifying pastime.
Not surprisingly, I have a suggestion!Read More

To love Portsmouth is to love its history. It is 16.8 square miles of grand old homes in grand old neighborhoods. It has a working seaport with its own special backstory. It has a front row seat along the Piscataqua and a terrific sight line toward the Isles of Shoals.
But about those neighborhoods. They tell the story of Portsmouth as well as any of our beloved city’s features. And this year’s Kitchen Tour to Benefit The Music Hall is centered in the Little Harbour neighborhood, among the city’s most popular communities.Read More

It’s that time of year again, it’s the week of the Kitchen Tour. This year, I’m sidelined with my broken ankle (but I will say my fabulous cast was decorated by Ashleigh Tucker Pollock, our force behind the tour) so I won’t be able to join in on all of the fun, so I thought I’d share some helpful hints. This year, we’re touring the Little Harbour neighborhood, just steps from downtown Portsmouth.Read More

People who find their forever homes are fortunate people. They love a place so much they never want to leave it. Talk about a dream home. That’s what the good folks at 86 Ridges Court found when they moved into their little slice of heaven near the Piscataqua River 32 years ago. Good for them. And good for all of us who love The Kitchen Tour to Benefit The Music Hall, as we have one of the residents here to thank. She was a founding member of the theater’s board and co-chair of the inaugural tour. And she’s still giving back by welcoming us into her delightful kitchen this year. Read More

I just got a message from my Netflix account asking for my rating of a bunch of recent movies. If I do this, they say, they can focus the recommendations they make for other films I might enjoy watching.
Based on what I have streamed in the past, Netflix thinks I love British detective TV shows (which is true) and also teen comedies (not so much) and action films and costume dramas and romantic comedies, with a sprinkling of dramas thrown in. In other words, I’m all over the map. Accordingly, I get recommendations for a mixed bag of movies, very few of which are really my cup of tea, but all of which share a genre with something I’ve watched in the past.Read More
