GIVE THE EXPERIENCE OF A LIFETIME THIS YEAR

PATRICIA LYNCH, Executive Director

As you’re reading this, Santa’s elves trot across our stage, spectacular sets light up, buckets of popcorn fill, and Buddy the elf journeys to the Big Apple. If you haven’t gotten your tickets to Elf The Musical yet, don’t wait!

It’s easy to forget that the best part about the holidays is giving gifts. There’s a heartwarming and heart-filling feeling when you see the joy on others’ faces when they receive a gift. It’s like getting one in return. I’ve heard more and more folks asking for gifts of experiences, rather than “stuff.” I wholly embrace this, as it lends itself to more creative options. Be it a wine and paint night, a football game, a National Parks pass, or a night at the theater, give an experience this holiday season. Lucky for you, we have a lot of expertise in this area. You can gift tickets to our holiday show, Elf The Musical, for a memorable Christmastime outing with friends and family. Or, you might want to give your loved ones tickets to one of our upcoming shows. We are always bringing legendary and up-and-coming artists and acts to both theaters, as well as art house films and bestselling authors. In the new year, trumpeter Chris Botti returns with a stellar program, Whoopi Goldberg graces our stage for a rare appearance, and our lineup of opera and theatre is extraordinary. Check out our website for a full lineup.

If you’re not sure which tickets to give, give a membership to The Music Hall and let them pick! Memberships start at $50 for the household annually, and offer discounts to shows and local businesses. We have a special offer going on this month; see page 12 for details.

Wishing you and your loved ones happiness and joy this holiday season, and I hope to see you soon in our decked out theater!

A Loving Tribute to Jim Labrie and His City

Remarks

from June 13 Streetscape Party, delivered by Michael Labrie

My father loved this city. Untold numbers benefited from his quiet generosity, thoughtful real estate development, and community support.

It is appropriate then that there is a tangible and enduring monument remembering one small part that he played in his beloved city’s history. That part included not only signing the bottom of a check in support of this exciting project, but he also impacted the redesign of the arch in a way that he felt better represented his view of the city, moving to one more aligned with the industrial seafaring history of the people who built and made this city great.

It became a nod to the great bridges spanning the mighty Piscataqua, to those who came to fish, and to those who built the great seafaring vessels that served in defense of our nation and networked our city with merchants around the globe. These shipwrights, I might add, were the same ones who built our cherished historic theater. Dad was very pleased with the changes that the talented Mr. Terrence Parker made.

As many know, Portsmouth has a history of using arches to celebrate important milestones. This fact was pointed out during efforts to permit the arch and written about by Dennis Robinson in articles about the city’s upcoming 400-year anniversary. What great foresight it was to envision this monument roughly 10 years ago, and how fitting it is that our own Susan Labrie will be heading up the celebration of this important milestone.

I also view my father’s involvement in this project during his few remaining years on a more personal level. He was a hardworking, self-made man who expected as much effort from everyone else as he put forward. As his sons, my brother Peter and I have spent much of our lives following in his footsteps trying to make him proud, operating small businesses, developing real estate as best we can. Over the past several years, with our sponsorship and my growing involvement with The Music Hall, he could see how much the Theater and its extended family meant to me. He could see that I was accepted here and that all of us together were doing great things for the community that we serve. So, when I asked him to support this project in a meaningful way, he did so without hesitation.

When I look up at the arch, I see my father looking down, and he’s proud. Thank you.

HERE & NOW

Spreading Cheer

At The Music Hall we are proud of the work we do to keep our programs and events accessible —both economically and physically. During the holiday season we shift that effort into high gear with our Give the Gift of Magic campaign to provide free tickets to families in need. We rely on your support for that initiative, which was first inspired and underwritten by Morgan & Tara Rutman. The Rutmans have continued their support and, for the second year in a row, Optima Bank & Trust has provided a matching gift.

Last year Give the Gift of Magic was such a success that we were inspired to expand the reach of that program—as well as a program to bring veterans and their families to the Theater free of charge. This year tickets will be distributed by an expanded roster of community partners: Big Brothers Big Sisters of New Hampshire and Arts in Reach are now participating, along with Greater Seacoast Community Health (formerly Families First Health and Support Center and Goodwin Community Health of Somersworth) and Cross Roads House in Portsmouth. If funds allow and we are able to meet their needs, we will continue to expand our reach, bringing additional organizations in to the program.

We are also delighted to once again recognize the generosity of Michael Kane of The Kane Company, and Jim Teetzel of Wilcox Industries. These two joined forces to sponsor a veterans night last December and have renewed their support this year, underwriting a fund that will bring 100 veterans and their families to Elf The Musical. In partnership with Veterans Count, The Music Hall will distribute complimentary tickets to thank our honored veterans for their service.

Member Spotlight: Lesa Borninski

This month, we’re spotlighting volunteer and member, Lesa Borninski. James Paone, our Front of House General Manager, caught up with her to talk about the School Days Series (SDS) and the importance of volunteering in the community.

What is your favorite part about the School Days Series?

SDS has evolved over the years but what remains the same is each performance awakens a sense of wonder, feeds the imagination, and encourages thoughtful conversation. I firmly believe field trips to a venue like The Music Hall are immensely beneficial for students at all ages as it enhances and expands their world; it can show them that learning happens in all kind of places, not just a school room.

Why is being a part of The Music Hall important to you?

My family and I have gotten so much out of The Music Hall that it was a natural progression. It takes a community to be a community and that is what The Music Hall has been to us. I was a volunteer during the renovation and restoration, and the energy and commitment to it were tangible. The Music Hall is an amazing gift to our Seacoast community and my hope is that more and more folks have the chance to experience an event and treasure the venue like I do. Read

A documentary celebration of the life and career of one of America's most influential and celebrated filmmakers and comedians, Buster Keaton, whose singular style and fertile output during the silent era created his legacy as a true cinematic visionary.

Studio 54 was the epicenter of 70s hedonism—a place that not only redefined the nightclub but also came to symbolize an entire era. Its co-owners, Ian Schrager and Steve Rubell, two friends from Brooklyn, seemed to come out of nowhere to suddenly preside over a new kind of New York society. Now, 39 years after the velvet rope was first slung across the club's hallowed threshold, a feature documentary tells the real story behind the greatest club of all time.

COEN BROTHERS: PARTNERS IN CRIME

Subscription (series of six): $75; Individual Ticket: $15

Hosted by Trevor Bartlett

Working always on the fringes of Hollywood convention, siblings Joel and Ethan Coen have a talent for bending the rules of the very genres they explore. Though their films are individually distinctive, taken together, they exhibit a number of recurring hallmarks—not least of which is a preoccupation with criminal schemes gone terribly wrong. Equally mannered as they can be merciless, hilarious as they can be harrowing, the Coens have staked out a unique place for themselves to play by their own rules.

About the Host: Trevor Bartlett

Once voted New Hampshire's Best Film Critic by NH Magazine, Trevor Bartlett has worked in the Telluride (Colorado) Film Festival curatorial staff, and previously produced Portsmouth's Telluride by the Sea at The Music Hall for many years. A lifelong advocate for the arts, he is a graphic designer, event coordinator, and media consultant. He's an avid traveler and adventure seeker, and cultivates a guilty appreciation for trashy grindhouse pictures.

C&J Bus Lines Shines on Opening Night of Elf The Musical

We are so pleased to once again be partnering with C&J Bus Lines, the Presenting Sponsor of the Ogunquit Playhouse at The Music Hall, as we bring Broadway to Portsmouth (and the reverse!). Continuing with tradition, on opening night of Elf The Musical, C&J will be giving out custom ornaments to celebrate our partnership. This year’s ornament also commemorates C&J’s 50th anniversary, so it is sure to be a sweet souvenir. We won’t give away the design but those of you who share our affinity for elf culture will be particularly pleased.

Speaking of giveaways, when you collect your Elf tickets at the B2W Box Office or in the mail, look for your coupon to save $20 on your next trip to the Big Apple. That’s right, every Elf ticket envelope will include a coupon good for $20 off roundtrip travel aboard C&J’s executive class service to New York City. More details are available on the coupon.

We hope you will join us for the Elf The Musical Opening Night festivities on Friday, November 30 or at some point during the run of the show. Good seats are still available; bring a Buddy to share in the excitement!

Membership Makes a Great Gift: Be One AND Give One!

It’s the most wonderful time of the year: Member BOGO time! If you’re looking for great gifts, if you’re considering upgrading your membership, or if you haven’t yet officially joined The Music Hall family, this is the time to “Be One and Give One.”

From now until December 31, when you purchase, upgrade, or renew your membership, The Music Hall will send a complimentary Friendlevel membership ($50 value) to someone on your holiday shopping list.

Membership is the perfect gift for the people in your life who prefer experiences over stuff. Plus, The Music Hall operates 52 weeks a year, so they’ll think of and thank you all year long! Membership means access to advanced ticket purchase opportunities, special discounts around Portsmouth, an invitation to a special Music Hall member event, a copy of our monthly magazine, recognition in our Playbill, and insider news emails.

The Foundry Place Garage is Open!

There’s a new parking garage in town and it may be your new favorite spot to park. Just a five-minute walk away from our front doors, The Foundry Place Garage is located at the corner of Deer and Bridge Streets. It’s just four blocks away, still close enough to everything downtown. It also offers $1 per hour parking, which may be one of the best rates in town!

The new garage also features creative structures in front designed by Terrence Parker of Terra Firma Landscape Architecture (who also designed the Chestnut Street Arch). This piece of public art was chosen by Art-Speak from a range of submissions. Congratulations to him on yet another outstanding project!

If you’re coming into town to see Elf The Musical, plan ahead. The holiday season means tough parking downtown, and we don’t want you to miss the show! Make sure your party is able to walk from the parking garage or drop them off in front of The Music Hall on Chestnut Street. Consider coming into town early for dinner or lunch at one of the many delicious, nearby restaurants, too. For other parking options, rates, and directions, check out ParkPortsmouth.com.

SPONSOR SPOTLIGHT

Anchor Line Immortalizes Hampton Ford Hyundai

If you’re a frequent film attendee at The Music Hall, you may be following the evolution of our very own cinema star, Jay McFarland. Jay is the owner of Hampton Ford Hyundai, our Presenting Cinema Sponsor. You see him on the big screen prior to every Extraordinary Cinema and Wildcard screening.

Jay and Hampton Ford Hyundai are part of the McFarland automotive family, where shoppers are more than "just a customer.” Jay is also part of The Music Hall family.

When Hampton Ford Hyundai first began supporting film at The Music Hall, we connected Jay with Anchor Line, a full service video production company. Anchor Line is a great partner—for The Music Hall and for their own clients—because of their collaborative style. Together they made a trailer featuring Jay. Last year they made it better. And now the team at Anchor Line has outdone themselves with a clip that lets Jay’s quiet yet hilarious personality shine.

I always arrive early so I can grab my popcorn and catch all the previews. I encourage those of you who like to race in at the last minute to do the same. Let the Hampton Ford Hyundai pitch that Anchor Line built be your incentive; the Oscar buzz is thick for this one!
