Lend Me a Tenor

Presented by Seacoast Repertory Theatre

This madcap, screwball comedy is guaranteed to leave you teary-eyed with laughter. Mishaps and mistaken identities abound in this furiously paced comedic farce when the great Italian tenor (ll Stupendo to his fans) is scheduled to play Othello for one night only.

Went to the Saturday matinee and absolutely loved the singing (great voices); choreography; music (of course!); and diversity of actors. Intimate theater setting in a tourist-friendly town.

Lively show with a talented cast. What a wonderful surprise to enjoy a show based on Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night" and Elvis Presley's songs carrying the storyline. The only negative I have was that the sound system was turned up much to loud. Otherwise a great show!

Rent is one of my favorite shows. The cast was very energetic and professional. The quality may not be that of a Broadway production, but for a regional theater, it was quite good. Some of the voices were outstanding. The choreography was excellent as well. We like this theater - it doesn't matter where you sit, you can see and hear perfectly.

We had never seen a production at the Seacoast Repertory Theater in Portsmouth, NH. The theater is a great and cozy venue. As an audience member, you felt as though you were part of the production. The cast of RENT was energetic and great. You could feel the emotion as the production unfolded. The emsemble was talented and the production was edgy. Highly recommended

I have attended a number of Broadway musicals over the years but had never seen an off Broadway show until I ended up at the Saturday night performance of Altar Boyz in Portsmouth, NH. I didn't quite know what to expect from a show in a small local venue without all the high tech resources of a Broadway theater, but it turned out to be by far the most enjoyable performance I have ever attended! The story was quite funny, the audience was kept engaged, and the 5 member cast was absolutely terrific! Each one of them is an incredibly talented actor, singer and dancer, and they seemed to be perfectly cast for their respective roles! The show was a perfect balance of humor and amazing talent! I was so impressed by the singing and dancing! It's the first time ever that I would consider seeing a performance a second time. The audience was made up of younger and older adults alike, and all seemed to be having a good time. So I'd strongly recommend this performance to adults of all ages.
