Portsmouth's Music Hall unveiled a 2007 12 strategic plan to raise membership from 936 in 2004 to about 2,300 and overhaul the 19th century venue. Executive Director Patricia Lynch says the renovation will expand capacity, attract more diverse events, and forge community partnerships, cementing the hall as Portsmouth’s anchor cultural arts organization. Alan Alda praised backstage tech during a Writers on a New England Stage visit, highlighting the need to move beyond 19th century equipment.

Ocean Properties loses control of Wentworth by the Sea holdings
Ocean Properties no longer holds a controlling share of Wentworth by the Sea hotel and spa in New Castle and the two local Marriott hotels, says Richard Ade. The shift does not halt ongoing lawsuits against Portsmouth over bonding for a parking garage tied to a Westin project. Ocean’s attorney Tom Keane argues public money should not back private ventures. City attorney Bob Sullivan says the bond suits may be unaffected and the corporate change is unclear.
