# Event Details

- **Event Name**: A New England Christmas presented by Pontine Theatre
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 18 Dec, 2025 at 06:30 pm – Thu, 18 Dec, 2025 at 07:30 pm
- **Event Description**: We are pleased to welcome back Portsmouth’s Pontine Theatre to Tamworth, with two intimately-scaled holiday stories featuring the essence of Christmas in New England: A Speakin’ Ghost and Christmas Back Home. Both stories are by wonderful regional authors long gone and largely forgotten by contemporary audiences.

+ A Speakin’ Ghost, written by Annie Trumbull Slosson (1838–1926), features a woman born and raised in Rye, New Hampshire. Many years after leaving her childhood home near the ocean to work as a household servant, she finds herself living an isolated life while providing care for an elderly man. She spends most of her time alone in her room, reliving memories of years gone by. From these musings arises a ghost-like figure, a young boy who begins making regular visits to this lonely soul.

+ Christmas Back Home, a story by Eugene Wood (1860–1923), features a delightful cast of characters who inhabit a small, rural town. The piece evokes the childhood magic and suspense of Christmas as the special day approaches. The enchantment of preparing gifts to both give and receive enlivens this simple, heartfelt musing about the most magical day of the year.

Pontine Theatre incorporates antique stage techniques, including rolling panoramas, puppetry, and toy theatre figures, to bring stories to life onstage. All props and sets used in these productions are created by a member of the company.

This event would make a delightful pre-Christmas gift!
