The 2019-20 Season has been shaped by Catherine Stewart in her new role as Associate Artistic Director for NHTP. “The theme Can one person make a difference? will carry through our MainStage, and into other areas of programming including classes and workshops,” explains Stewart.
“At NHTP we’re talking a lot about our place in Portsmouth, in the state and beyond - what difference do we make? We chose plays that challenge our thinking of race, gender, the environment, economics, and more. This theme allows us to continue that conversation with artists and audiences as we grow and change as an organization.”
