In the Mid 1800’s columnist Charles W. Brewster collected anecdotes from town records and elderly citizens and published a series of articles in the Portsmouth Journal. He called them "Brewster's Rambles," and today they're the inspiration for a new theater production by the Pontine Theater. We'll talk with the co-directors and performers of the piece, Greg Gathers & M. Marguerite Mathews. They're the artistic directors of Pontine Theater.

Also in the show, we'll talk with Iain MacLeod of the NH Audubon Society about the patterns of geese and we'll check out the Peregrine Falcon Cam in Manchester.
