G Gathering Christmas Eve at the Commodore Benefits the Portsmouth Humane Society

Christmas Eve at the Commodore Benefits the Portsmouth Humane Society



Commodore Theatre owners Fred Schoenfeld and Jean Haskell welcomed friends to their traditional Christmas Eve at the Commodore. The annual event marks the only day of the year the Commodore closes and raises funds, food and supplies for the Portsmouth Humane Society. Fred and Jean are deeply involved in helping animals at the shelter and are the proud guardians of their own brood.
