Gen-erations!, New Hampshire Theatre Project's final production of the 2022-2023 season, is a joyful retrospective honoring the past and celebrating the future. Founder Genevieve Aichele will be stepping down as the Executive Director on June 30 and Gen-erations! features excerpts from favorite NHTP productions she has directed, acted in, or written over the past 35 years.
New Hampshire Theatre Project's 2021-22 MainStage season concludes May 6-22 with the classic mystery drama An Inspector Calls by J. B Priestley. A young girl commits suicide and an eminently respectable upper middle class family is subject to a routine inquiry in connection with her death. An inspector calls to interrogate the family about their possible roles in her undoing.
In science, the Uncertainty Principle states that 'the momentum and position of a particle cannot both be precisely determined at the same time.' Using this theme as a metaphor for the ever-changing landscape of life during the Covid-19 pandemic, NHTP artists have created a new docudrama based on interviews with 28 community members between April 2020 and April 2021.
