In-Person Entertainment — At Last!

05.05.2021 By: Megan James

In-Person Entertainment — At Last!

Town Hall Theater has kept busy with virtual and outdoor shows since the pandemic started last year — I especially loved the Quarantine Sessions, and Doc Lyle Sol’s Medicine Show. But oh, how we’ve missed live performances!

Luckily THT has a great line-up for this spring and summer. Here’s the latest from Executive Director Lisa Mitchell:

Town Hall Theater is pleased to present its inaugural outdoor season, featuring live music, comedy, plays, talks, films, food trucks and more. Performances will pop up around THT, at Middlebury’s Marble Works District, Woodchuck Cider, Swift House, and other carefully curated locations across Addison and Chittenden Counties. In addition to THT-produced programming, we are thrilled to partner with resident companies, including the Middlebury New Filmmakers Festival and Middlebury Acting Company on their debut outdoor film and theatre offerings.  

Activating communities through the arts is key to Vermont’s collective economic recovery. Thanks to strong support, at every level, THT is able to reopen its doors, as well as engage in energizing work and partnerships that benefit the greater Vermont community. With the support of an anonymous gift dedicated to supporting arts access, THT is thrilled to launch the outdoor season with a series of sensational free and low-cost events. Also, thanks to the George & Sue Cady Fund, we are pleased to offer a limited number of free and discounted tickets for those who would like to attend a show but have limited resources. Inquire at [email protected] for details.
