Home is Heaven
HOME IS HEAVEN: 32 POEMS BY OGDEN NASH, is a new play by Pontine Theatre, based on the poems of "America's Master of Light Verse," who made his summer home at Little Boar's Head in North Hampton NH.
Pontine Theatre's Artistic Directors have woven together 32 of Ogden Nash's poems which deal with family and summers by the seashore. These are arranged into three "summers at the beach" which span the early, middle, and late years of a family's life together. Using puppetry, shadow theatre, masks, and toy theatre, HOME IS HEAVEN celebrates both the flavor of Seacoast New Hampshire and Ogden Nash's unique, whimsical, and often idiosyncratic language and rhymes.
