On Thursday evening, the pin-striped harmonies of the Wailin' Jennys rippled through the ornate panels and pillars of the 101-year-old Cabot Theater in Beverley. The venue has been a longstanding treasure to the local community, surviving several iterations and turnovers to emerge as the retro concert hall it is now.
