SUMMARY:'A New England Christmas' at Pontine Theatre
DESCRIPTION:November 29 – December 15 \nPontine Theatre performs A New England Christmas featuring an original staging of William Dean Howell’s Christmas Everyday and Christmas in Our Town by Alice Van Leer Carrick.  Also on the program is seasonal music by New England Fiddle Ensemble’s Ellen Carlson  and a post-performance onstage party complete with homemade Christmas cookies.  Author\, editor\, playwright\, poet and Kittery resident\, William Dean Howells (1837-1920) was a resident of  Kittery\, Maine.  In Christmas Every Day\, a little girl is granted a wish by the Christmas Fairy.  Her wish is to have Christmas everyday for a whole year.  The first day of Christmas is perfect.  The following day it is Christmas again\, and every subsequent day as well. Finally\, the little girl begs the Christmas Fairy to undo the spell; she doesn’t want it to be Christmas ever again.   In her reminiscence\, Christmas in Our Town\, Alice Van Leer Carrick tells of her treasured memories of a New England holiday in Hanover\, New Hampshire in the mid-20th century. Her whimsical turn of phrase and witty allusions coupled with sheer sentiment goes straight to the heart.  Performances are Fridays 7pm\, Saturdays @3pm & Sundays @2pm.
