SUMMARY:The Dorset Theater Festival Presents: THE UNDERSTUDY
DESCRIPTION:THE UNDERSTUDY \nJuly 10 – 19 (11 PERFORMANCES ONLY!) \nhttps://dorsettheatrefestival.org/the-understudy \n  \n\n\n\n\nA WICKEDLY FUNNY\, FAST-PACED COMEDY \nWritten & Directed By Theresa Rebeck \n\n\n\nABOUT THE PLAY\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBreak a leg… or someone else’s. \nDown-on-his-luck actor Harry finally catches a break: he’s cast as the understudy in a long-lost Kafka play playing to sold-out Broadway crowds. But when the show’s swaggering Hollywood star\, Jake\, sweeps into rehearsal\, the stage becomes a battlefield of ego\, ambition\, and insecurity of truly Kafkaesque proportions. \nCaught in the crossfire is the razor-sharp stage manager—with a complicated history with both men—desperately trying to keep the production (and her sanity) from imploding before opening night. \nTheresa Rebeck’s THE UNDERSTUDY is a wickedly funny\, fast-paced backstage comedy about ambition\, jealousy\, second chances\, and the fragile line between art and ego. Smart\, biting\, and unexpectedly moving\, it’s a love letter to the theater—and a no-holds-barred look at what happens when the spotlight isn’t big enough for everyone. \nSchedule: \nFRIDAY\, JULY 10th – 7:30 PM (PREVIEW) \nSATURDAY\, JULY 11th – 7:30 PM (OPENING NIGHT) \nSUNDAY\, JULY 12th – 2:00 PM \n\n\nWEDNESDAY\, JULY 15 – 2:00 PM \nWEDNESDAY\, JULY 15 – 7:30 PM \nTHURSDAY\, JULY 16 – 7:30 PM \nFRIDAY\, JULY 17 – 2:00 PM \nFRIDAY\, JULY 17 – 7:30 PM \nSATURDAY\, JULY 18 – 2:00 PM \nSATURDAY\, JULY 18 – 7:30 PM \nSUNDAY\, JULY 19 – 2:00 PM (CLOSING)

SUMMARY:The Dorset Theater Festival Presents: THE UNDERSTUDY
DESCRIPTION:THE UNDERSTUDY \nJuly 10 – 19 (11 PERFORMANCES ONLY!) \nhttps://dorsettheatrefestival.org/the-understudy \n  \n\n\n\n\nA WICKEDLY FUNNY\, FAST-PACED COMEDY \nWritten & Directed By Theresa Rebeck \n\n\n\nABOUT THE PLAY\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBreak a leg… or someone else’s. \nDown-on-his-luck actor Harry finally catches a break: he’s cast as the understudy in a long-lost Kafka play playing to sold-out Broadway crowds. But when the show’s swaggering Hollywood star\, Jake\, sweeps into rehearsal\, the stage becomes a battlefield of ego\, ambition\, and insecurity of truly Kafkaesque proportions. \nCaught in the crossfire is the razor-sharp stage manager—with a complicated history with both men—desperately trying to keep the production (and her sanity) from imploding before opening night. \nTheresa Rebeck’s THE UNDERSTUDY is a wickedly funny\, fast-paced backstage comedy about ambition\, jealousy\, second chances\, and the fragile line between art and ego. Smart\, biting\, and unexpectedly moving\, it’s a love letter to the theater—and a no-holds-barred look at what happens when the spotlight isn’t big enough for everyone. \nSchedule: \nFRIDAY\, JULY 10th – 7:30 PM (PREVIEW) \nSATURDAY\, JULY 11th – 7:30 PM (OPENING NIGHT) \nSUNDAY\, JULY 12th – 2:00 PM \n\n\nWEDNESDAY\, JULY 15 – 2:00 PM \nWEDNESDAY\, JULY 15 – 7:30 PM \nTHURSDAY\, JULY 16 – 7:30 PM \nFRIDAY\, JULY 17 – 2:00 PM \nFRIDAY\, JULY 17 – 7:30 PM \nSATURDAY\, JULY 18 – 2:00 PM \nSATURDAY\, JULY 18 – 7:30 PM \nSUNDAY\, JULY 19 – 2:00 PM (CLOSING)

SUMMARY:Dorset Farmer's Market!
DESCRIPTION:Every Sunday from 10am-2pm.\nThis time of year the market is outside – across the street from HN Williams!\nAt the Dorset Farmers Market\, everything you see comes directly from the people who grew it\, raised it\, made it\, or baked it. We’re proud to be a producer-only market\, which means every vendor is directly involved in the creation of what they sell. No resellers\, no middlemen. Just real people offering what they make themselves. \nThis model keeps our market personal and authentic. It builds trust\, supports local livelihoods\, and gives you the chance to truly know where your food and goods come from\, and who made them. \nAlso\, this model isn’t just about transparency\, it’s about community impact. When you shop here\, your dollars stay local\, supporting the farmers\, food producers\, and artisans who live and work right here in our community. That means stronger small businesses\, more resilient local food systems\, and a vibrant local economy. \nIt’s a more sustainable way to shop\, one that supports the land\, the local economy\, and meaningful connections.
