For the last two decades, the Warren Miller Ski film has come to our Historic Theater the week of Thanksgiving. Each year, for three days, we follow the athletes team as they take us on their ski adventures all around the world. This year’s film “Line of Descent, presented by Volkswagen” takes us to Squaw Valley, Jackson Hole, Norway, the French Alps, British Columbia, Steamboat Springs, New Zealand, and some other skiing venues.Read More

When it comes to meetings and events, studies show—and meeting planners know—that “authenticity” is more than a buzzword. For today’s attendees, having an authentic experience is the key to success.

I’m not always in the mood for a quiet movie in a beautiful setting with a positive message and appealing characters. After all, I rank Pulp Fiction and The Usual Suspects among my all-time favorites and I know the energy a good villain can bring to a story. But from the moment I heard about School Life, the movie we’re going to be discussing on Tuesday night in The Music Hall Loft, I found myself looking forward to it with real anticipation.Read More

We are so pleased to have C&J Bus Lines as a valued partner in The Ogunquit Playhouse at The Music Hall series. As we look toward our 2017 holiday production, Irving Berlin’s White Christmas, The Musical, I had an opportunity to ask C&J President Jim Jalbert a few questions about what he’s looking forward to from this show, his favorite memories from past years, and why supporting the community is central to C&J’s business.Read More
