Here & There Column 6-4-13

Summer Brings Lots Of Entertainment

  If your looking for summer entertainment you don't have to look any further than the tri-state area.
  The summer months brings us Bethel Woods Center For The Arts, the Forestburgh Playhouse, Belleayre Music Festival, the Ritz Company Playhouse, musicians gathering Thursday's at The Dancing Cat Saloon, The Rivoli Theatre onstage plays, great Fairs like the Little World's Fair at Grahamsville, the Wayne County Fair at Honesdale, the Wurtsboro Street Fair, the Delaware County Fair, Orange County Fair and the second largest fair in the State of New York, the Dutchess County Fair at Rhinebeck. 
  It's always exciting to receive the yearly Forestburgh Playhouse schedule and Production Director Norman  Duttweiler has once again put together an outstanding schedule including performances like the Odd Couple, Dolly Parton's 9 to 5, Grease and South Pacific.
  The great Bethel Woods brings to Sullivan County entertainers including Joan Baez & Indigo Girls, Dave Mathews Band, Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, Eagles, Tim McGraw and Cheek & Chong along with many other outstanding acts.
  At the Ritz Company Playhouse you can  take in plays like Young Frankenstein, The Little Mermaid and You've Got Hate Mail. 
  The Belleayre Music Festival plays host to Dwight Yoakam, Manhattan Transfer, The Doobie Brothers, Ben Vereen and the Music of Pink Floyd.
  It just doesn't get any better and I just shake my head when I hear folks say,. "nothing to do around here.
  We've got the best of both worlds, great country living in the Mountains, fresh healthy air and broadway entertainment at our doorstep. 
  Enjoy it.
