While going to the movies is always a great way to spend an evening, the experience of catching one of the latest box office hits gets taken to a higher, classier level when you plan to see a movie at the Commodore Theatre in Portsmouth. This luxurious theater was originally built in 1945 and was recently renovated in an eye-catching Art Deco style. But don't let the vintage trappings fool you–your movie-watching experience will prove to be quite a cutting edge entertainment experience thanks to the facility's state-of-the-art sound and projection technology.

If it's an onstage event happening in Portsmouth, there's a good chance that it is happening at the city's Willett Hall. This entertainment venue has been a benchmark site of many types of performances that have delighted audiences for years. Everything from rock and country concerts, impressively staged theatrical performances, thought-provoking speakers or seminars, or graceful ballets or dance recitals, Portsmouth's great performances can always be found on the Willett Hall stage.
