10 Years Ago, One of the Biggest Stories in New England Was About Market Basket and Loyalty
There are very few times that I go into Market Basket and don't think about the incredible display of loyalty that the employees showed 10 years ago this summer. In the summer of 2014, Market Basket's Board of Directors decided to fire Artie T. Demoulas. The next day, many employees started to strike due to loyalty with Artie T. and demanded that he be reinstated as CEO. Every media outlet gave the same story, stating that it was a family fight between two of the store's big bosses: cousins Artie T. Demoulas and Arthur S. Demoulas, grandsons of Arthur Demoulas, a Greek immigrant who founded the chain years ago.

Portsmouth's Pontine Theatre Announces 47th Season
From September 20-22, Portsmouth NH’s Pontine Theatre kicks off its 47th Season with performances of Odysseus by guest artist, William George, founding director of Pennsylvania’s Kingfisher Theatre. His latest creation is a fresh and intimate interpretation of the eternal Greek legend, The Odyssey. This timeless tale follows the mythical ten-year journey of one man, Odysseus, struggling to make his way home after the Trojan War. In a stage performance that is at once epic and “breath taking”—with live musical soundscapes performed by percussionist Rob Aptaker—this new solo work from William George, with directorial assistance from Gerard Stropnicky (co-founder of Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble) is a sensory experience and a once-in-a-decade theatre event not to be missed. The script, written by George, is drawn primarily from Alexander Pope’s 18th-century adaptation but is also influenced by several other translations of Homer’s epic work. The story may be ancient, but the themes ring true today—revealing deep insights not just about the psychic relationship between us all and the Divine, but also about fathers and sons, husbands and wives, and the profoundly human weaving of life and suffering in our lives. Performances are Friday 7pm, Saturday @3pm & Sunday @2pm. Purchase tickets at Pontine’s website: www.pontine.org.
