Shakespeare in Sandwich By Kathi Caldwell-Hopper “Speak the speech, I pray you, as I pronounced it to you, trippingly on the tongue: but if you mouth it, as many of your players do, I had as lief the town crier spoke my lines.” ‑William Shakespeare’s Hamlet The speech from the timeless play Hamlet gives advice to a theatrical troupe and the words are as fitting today as when penned hundreds of years ago. Whether Shakespeare’s plays take place on a Broadway stage or at a smaller location, the works and words remain popular in our modern day. In pastoral Sandwich, NH, one might not expect to find Shakespeare’s plays. However, his works thrive when performed by a wonderful theatrical group, Advice To The Players (ATTP). The theatre has been around since 1999, when Caroline Nesbitt, a theatre professional and summer resident of the Sandwich area, started the small troupe as a way to do Shakespeare. She had many professional friends, as well as local acquaintances and gathering to perform was a way to work locally and it can be imagined, to also have fun. ATTP produced Othello that first year and the next year, Much Ado About Nothing. The public enjoyed the plays and over the years, programs expanded to include an outdoor summer production at the Sandwich

A Christmas Carol at the Barnstormers ATTP brings a great deal to the Theatre in Tamworth. Sandwich area and beyond, on a year Caroline also taught at the round basis. Becca has no qualms about Community School in Sandwich, and she had an epiphany when she saw including students in Shakespearian productions and says, “When you put how the words of Shakespeare gave students in that situation, they measure students an understanding of language. up.” Students also acted in the local This belief is true in just about theatre troupe, and Caroline cleverly everything ATTP does, from the mixed students, community members Shakespearian plays offered to schools, and professional actors together and in area towns and at children’s summer that is still the model of ATTP to this camps. And it works if the audience day. attendance and enthusiasm for the Caroline met Becca Boyden when performances is a measure of success. both worked on the crew at the “The last seven or eight years, we Barnstormer’s Theatre in the 1960s. have taken the show on the road,” In 2002 Becca joined ATTP as set Becca says. “We do student matinees designer.

such as in Conway and at the Sandwich Town Hall.” The town of Sandwich embraces ATTP and they are part of Sandwich Old Home Week and offer a fun Elizabethan Family Faire in Sandwich over the 4th of July weekend. Becca is particularly excited that ATTP has found a permanent home at the former Surroundings Art Gallery space in downtown Sandwich. It will give the troupe an intimate performance space with a gallery, a piano and endless possibilities for art shows and concerts. “We are having an exhibit of theatre posters until July 26,” Becca explains. “Then we are featuring Line! An Actor Draws the Theatre with work by John Devaney starting July 30.” The children’s camps offered by ATTP are very popular, with something for all ages. “We have been doing summer camp since 2002,” Becca explains. “It is a two-week, morning day camp for ages 5 to 15.” The camp offers Shakesperience for ages 5 to 7 with an introduction to theatre through arts activities and free play. The camp combines active play with stories, poetry, music, games, movement and hands-on projects and takes place July 13-24 from 9 am to noon. Shakesperience for 8-12 year

• Shakespeare Continued from page 3 olds offers a chance for youngsters to experience theatre through the performance of Twelfth Night. Children will go on an exciting journey into the fascinating world of Shakespeare and theater. Lots of fun, games, improvisation, and bringing Shakespeare’s colorful characters and plays to life on the stage is offered and led by Pam Schnatterly, an actress/ theatre arts professional. It takes place from July 13-24 from 9 am to noon. Shakesperience for ages 12 to 15 offers voice, movement and stage technique and Combat and Elizabethan dance and performance. Theater-loving teens will go on a dynamic exploration of Shakespeare’s words, stories, and themes. Improv, clowning, text, and even some stage combat provide keys to theatrical adventure and summer fun. The camp is led by Conor Moroney, a Shakespeare & Company trained teaching artist. The camp runs from July 13-24, 9 am to noon. The Young Players Practicum for age 13 and up offers advanced training and participation in ATTP’s August production. The Practicum is designed for young actors who want to explore new acting challenges and participate in a professional Shakespeare production. With limited enrollment,

scenes from Twelfth Night. Shakespeare’s popular Twelfth Night will take place on July 31 – August 9 at 2 pm at the Sandwich Fairgrounds and at the Town Hall Theatre on August 4 at 7:30 pm. “Twelfth Night has a nice plot,” says Becca, “and a wonderful central character.“ Those who act in ATTP’s shows bring a lot of talent to the stage, from training in American Stage Fighting that makes for realistic fight scenes to the incredibly detailed costumes that bring the audience back to Shakespeare’s day. And what about the perception that the language of Shakespeare is hard to understand when heard in the modern day? Becca laughs as she says, “We do a lot of shows where audience members come up to me after the performance and tell me they are so glad we did the play with a modern translation. But we didn’t do that – we perform the plays in Shakespeare’s language!” This clearly proves that the most respected of all playwrights created work that stands the test of time. When brought to modern day audiences with skill and creativity, Shakespeare is certainly as entertaining today as in the distant time in which it was written. What does the future hold for the hard working, always creative ATTP? “We want to keep growing the educational side,” Becca shares. “And we want to use the 12 Main space wisely and make it available to the community.” The theatre started by Caroline Nesbitt all those years ago continues to thrive in New Hampshire. For those who are skeptical that such a troupe can be a success doing Shakespeare, just stop by one of the performances and enter the enchanted, magical, entertaining world conjured up by Advice To The Players.

July at the Garvin Gallery Five The Garvin Gallery Five, located at 3 High Street in Sanbornville, announces well-known New Hampshire artist Ron Fountain as its Artist of the Month for July. Ron Fountain is a resident of Brookfield, New Hampshire and an engineer by training and has long been a self-taught sculptor, using found objects and discarded material pieces. A visitor to Ron’s studios would see a variety of these metal pieces. Ron could be called a divergent thinker; most of us would not see the possibilities and humor that he sees in ordinary objects. In July 2005, Ron was featured in an art and poetry project at Artstream in Rochester, New Hampshire. He has been featured on NH Crossroads and Channel 6 Maine as well as several showings for fundraising events and private enterprises. When asked about his interest in creating with metal, Ron replied, “Some are born with a gift of creativity, while others learn through the consequences of their lives. What creativity I possess falls into the latter category.” Ron spent his first seven years on his grandmother’s farm adjacent to the Bay of Fundy, Nova Scotia, and it left a lasting impression on him. Ron survived, as did many during the Depression years, living off the land and the sea. By necessity, he repaired, recycled or simply did without. With that early influence and having no playmates, Ron learned to entertain himself. A tin can, a stick, or treasures washed up on the beach would become whatever his imagination would allow. Today Ron creates in all mediums and his art is the fruit of found, discarded or donated materials. Alongside Ron Fountain, the Gallery continues to showcase the art of Norman Royle, Peter Abate, Betty Brown, Darlene Bean, Gabe Smith, Heather MacLeod, Josef Keller, Judy
Brenner, JP Goodwin, Ken Eason, Madelyn Albee and Sharon Theiling. Norman Royle lives in Wakefield, New Hampshire and is a graduate of Vesper George School of Art. He studied under the late Phillip Parsons of Lexington, Massachusetts for nearly 10 years. Norman paints mostly landscapes in oil and acrylics and coordinates the Wakefield/ Brookfield Plein Air painters, a group which meets every Wednesday throughout the year. He is a member of the Governor Wentworth Arts Council, co-founder of The Art Group and the Garvin Gallery Five. Norman is the current gallery coordinator for the Garvin Gallery Five. Peter Abate lives in West Newfield, Maine and works in watercolor and ink, assemblage, collage and photography. Peter is a past member of the advisory board at Willowbrook Museum in Newfield, Maine where he coordinated summer art exhibits from 2006 to 2010. Peter coordinates art exhibits for the Gafney Library in Sanbornville, New Hampshire where he has overseen monthly shows, including the Art at the Gafney summer fundraisers in its
seventh year. He is also coordinator for The Art Group, networking with artists from Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Maine, and he is a juried member of Mt. Washington Valley Arts. Peter is co-founder and gallery consultant for the Garvin Gallery Five and a member of the Curatorial Board of the Rochester Museum of Fine Arts.
Betty Brown attended the University of South Florida, earning a degree in Fine Art and Education. Further study was at the Museum School of Fine Arts, the Art Institute of NH and Sanctuary Arts of Elliot, Maine. Between 1985 and 2010, Betty worked as an art educator at Kingswood Regional High School, Brewster Academy, and Wolfeboro Camp School. In her paintings, representational imagery is juxtaposed with abstract fields of color, as classical structure sits on the edge of abstraction. Betty Brown’s work has been selected to be shown in the Women’s Caucus for Art Force of Nature exhibit at Plymouth State University in July, 2015. Darlene Bean celebrates the month of July at the Garvin Gallery Five exhibiting photographs of local and well-known American birds, including the American eagle. Wildlife and nature are her favorite subjects in the art of photography.

Meetinghouses with Photographer Paul Wainwright Paul Wainwright, award-winning photographer and author, will use several of his large-format photographs of the few surviving “mint condition” meetinghouses to illustrate a presentation on New England’s Colonial Meetinghouses and Their Impact on American Society. Sponsored by the New Hampshire Humanities Council and supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities, his program will take place Tues., July 21, at 7 pm in the historic Carroll County Court House on Route 171 in Ossipee Village. As hosts, the Ossipee Historical Society welcomes the public to attend, and although no admission will be charged, donations would be appreciated. Wainwright will tell the story of a society that built these structures as places for worship and town meetings—
as centers for life in New England’s Colonial communities. Described by the New Hampshire Humanities Council, his presentation will provide “a solid overview of colonial society and its values” by examining the type of building in a particular community and connecting the culture of its inhabitants to current “democratic and community values.” Based in Atkinson, New Hampshire, Wainwright is the author of A Space for Faith: The Colonial Meetinghouses of New England, a book published in 2010 that includes his photographs and an essay by Peter Benes, noted Colonial historian. The book showcases the beauty and history of the few remaining Colonial meetinghouses in New England.

Brookfield: a Storied History and…Disc Golf? By Sarah Wright If it weren’t for Governor John Wentworth, much of the area between Portsmouth and Wolfeboro might not have been settled in the late 1700s. It was then that the governor had a road built that would help him travel from his home in Portsmouth to his summer mansion on Lake Wentworth in Wolfeboro. This route provided access to new areas of wilderness, and families who were looking for a different way of life could now create settlements along the road. By the 1780s, people were living along the northern side of the Moose Mountain range. Brookfield was connected from the mountains to Wolfeboro and to New Durham on the west. Small farms dotted the landscape and various mills popped up making cider, shingles, and lumber along with
tanneries, cobblers, and blacksmiths. Soon there were inns and shops as well. H o w e v e r , Brookfield began as part of Middleton, and wasn’t incorporated as its own town until December 30 in 1794. The townspeople of Brookfield spent years trying to become a separate entity. The original Middleton was divided into two parts by the long, high ridge of Moose Mountain. For those on the opposite side, it was a considerable obstacle to travel. Town

meetings, traditionally held during mud season, were particularly difficult to attend for those beyond the ridge. Later, in 1840, Brookfield became part of Carroll County, while Middleton remained part of Strafford County. In 1874, the Wo l f e b o r o Branch Railroad began passing through Brookfield. The old post office, taverns, and schoolhouses are now gone. Today, only the historic town house remains, built in the 1820s, which is used for various community functions. Brookfield works with nearby towns for its basic needs. Police, fire, and sanitation services are purchased from the neighboring town of Wakefield, and Brookfield students attend school in Wolfeboro, through the Governor Wentworth Regional School System. In the last 40 years, the population has increased to levels not seen since Brookfield’s peak in 1820. Its popularity is on the rise thanks to those seeking respite from encroaching commercial development, who choose to live in a primarily residential, rural community. However, one unique form of recreation is drawing new visitors and

vacationers to Brookfield. In the 1960s, a small family skiing business thrived on Moose Mountain, but closed up in the 1980s. Moose Mountain Recreation bought the dormant trails in 2009, and set out to revive the area. First off, instead of ski trails, the organization began offering snow tubing and opened trails for snowmobiles. But they also wanted to come up with a way for people to enjoy the area in other seasons, besides by hiking. The answer? Disc Golf! I wasn’t sure at first what that was, but if it’s easier than regular golf, I’m all in! Turns out that it’s a Frisbee game, where a disc is thrown at a target. Whoever can land the disc in the metal basket in the fewest throws (strokes) wins. Sounds like a fun game for the whole family. The targets get increasingly more challenging, with some targets in the woods through the trees. There are 18 “holes” in all, so the fun can last for hours. The disc golf course opened in May, and a Tag League began on June 4. There is also a lodge and a pro shop. The course may be played from sun up to sun down, seven days a week, but the lodge and pro shop have more limited hours. The lodge offers great views, is also available for functions and can accommodate up to 100 people. The pro shop carries Innova and Discraft merchandise and custom Moose Mountain items.

In 2009 Gabe competed in the Gutenberg Awards competition and won a prize for multi-color Lithography. Gabe Smith is a selftaught, non-traditional artist using a variety of mediums and surfaces. Gabe’s creative interests include artrelated technology, and he creates videos and music, which he showcases in various venues throughout New Hampshire and the surrounding areas. Gabe’s music CD’s are available at the gallery. Josef Keller and Heather MacLeod of Brownfield, Maine work together as a team to create exciting and unusual 2D and 3D art. They prefer to work with unconventional materials in nontraditional styles, often “re-purposing” or “up-cycling” vintage objects into both functional and/or decorative oneof-a-kind art pieces. Josef and Heather have an art studio in Brownfield, Maine where they have fun exploring, stretching and expanding their creative visions. Judy J. Brenner, a native of Ipswich, Massachusetts, grew up in an agricultural environment, and was influenced from childhood by nature: wild flowers, open fields and farms. Judy studied printmaking at the University of New Hampshire where she is a graduate in Art History. Judy interprets her love of nature by working on copper plate etchings and lithographs as well as watercolor and oils. Judy has made her home in Brookfield, New Hampshire for the past 30 years. Judy is the designer of the official Carroll County New Hampshire seal and the Brookfield, New Hampshire town seal. Recently she designed the Newichawannock Canal and Bridge area logo and the seal for the Wakefield Heritage

She is an Artist Member and a Trustee of the Mt. Washington Valley Arts Association, the Marblehead Arts Association and the Swampscott Arts Association. She is also affiliated with Arnould Gallery, the Marblehead and Vintage Frameworks and the Gold Leaf Gallery of North Conway. Ken Eason has been painting since 1992 using oils, encaustic and mixed media to express abstract thought, feeling, emotion and mood. Ken is interested in the relationships between color and texture and uses techniques that incorporate the use of brushes, pallet knives, spatulas, rags and fire to bring out the expressive point that he is looking to achieve in his art. Madelyn Albee lived in Canada for many years. She continues to paint in Nova Scotia in the winters, and currently lives in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire. Madelyn paints in oils and watercolors. Sharon Theiling moved to New Hampshire after retiring from a business in Massachusetts. She has always loved painting, using different medias. She attended Vesper George in Boston and belonged to the Danvers Art Association and the Lynnfield Art Group in Massachusetts. She studied with Phil Perkins of Lynnfield and Rockport and found her love in decorative painting with water and acrylics. Upon moving to New Hampshire, she joined Governor Wentworth Arts Council.

The Effingham Historical Society Plans Trip to Captain Enoch Remick House The Effingham Historical Society (EHS) will be going on a guided tour of the Captain Enoch Remick House, the “crown jewel” of the Remick Country Doctor Museum & Farm, on Friday, July 17 at 6:30 pm to learn more about the history of the impressive home and its inhabitants, the Remick family. Located in Tamworth on Great Hill Road, the house was built in 1808 in a Federal architectural style, but later additions resulted in Greek Revival and Italianate influences. Listed on the
National Register of Historic Places and passed down through six generations of Remicks, the home was occupied by members of the family from 1808– 1993, the year Dr. Edwin C. Remick passed away. It contains the antique furnishings of the Remick family, an antique toy collection, and 19th-century murals attributed to the American painter John Avery, in addition to the original medical office and medicine room, used by both Dr. Remicks, which are also preserved in the home.
