NYC's Concrete Temple Theatre to Join Pontine in Premiere of Two Works

By:
New York City's Concrete Temple Theatre will share the stage with Portsmouth's Pontine Theatre to premiere two original works inspired by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow's Evangeline: A Tale of Acadie.

Published in 1847, Evangeline is a story of loss and devotion set against the diaspora of the Acadian people from Nova Scotia in 1755. Pontine's stage adaptation of the poem will comprise the first act of the production. Following intermission, Concrete Temple Theatre will perform Evangeline, Remembered, their original work inspired by Longfellow's epic poem. Following the opening weekend, Pontine Theatre's adaptation of the poem continues for two more weekends as a one act play through 8 May. Performances are offered Fridays @7:30, Saturdays @4 & Sundays @2. Tickets are $24 and may be purchased online at www.pontine.org. Pontine's West End Studio Theatre is located at 959 Islington Street, Portsmouth NH. The theatre is not visible from the street, look for the big 959 on the signpost at the head of the drive. Contact Pontine: info@pontine.org / 603-436-6660
