SUMMARY:The Dorset Theater Festival Presents: ADVICE
DESCRIPTION:ADVICE \n\nJuly 31 – August 15 \n\n\n\n\n\nA LIVELY & IRREVERENT NEW COMEDY OF BAD MANNERS \nBy Brent Askari\nDirected by Adrienne Campbell- Holt \nStarring film\, television\, and stage stars\, Katie Lowes (ABC’s Scandal) and Adam Shapiro (The Bear) \n\n\n\nABOUT THE PLAY\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNEW ENGLAND PREMIERE! This play just completed its National New Play Network Rolling World Premiere \nWhat happens when a wildly unqualified man writes a self-help book… and then shows up to test it on his friends? \nRon and Joy’s anniversary dinner goes spectacularly off the rails when Gary — recently divorced\, chronically chaotic\, and newly self-declared life coach — shows up with a surprise: a self-help book he’s written called How To Maximize The Most Successful You. The problem? His life is a mess. \nAs Ron and Joy attempt a well-meaning intervention to stop Gary from quitting his day job\, the wine starts flowing\, the “team-building” exercises begin\, and the questions get a little too real. What starts as friendly concern spirals into confessions\, accusations\, and revelations no one planned to serve with dinner. \nFast\, sharp\, and wickedly funny\, ADVICE skewers friendship\, marriage\, and the danger of asking the wrong question at exactly the right time. Brent Askari’s witty new comedy is an uncomfortably relatable look at ambition\, insecurity\, and the chaos of trying to fix someone else’s life — and will have you howling with laughter. \nFRIDAY\, JULY 31 – 7:30 PM (PREVIEW) \nSATURDAY\, AUGUST 1 – 7:30 PM (OPENING NIGHT) \nSUNDAY\, AUGUST 2 – 2:00 PM \nWEDNESDAY\, AUGUST 5 – 2:00 PM \nWEDNESDAY\, AUGUST 5 – 7:30 PM \nTHURSDAY\, AUGUST 6 – 7:30 PM \nFRIDAY\, AUGUST 7 – 7:30 PM \nSATURDAY\, AUGUST 8 – 2:00 PM \nSATURDAY\, AUGUST 8 – 7:30 PM \nSUNDAY\, AUGUST 9 – 2:00 PM \nWEDNESDAY\, AUGUST 12 – 2:00 PM \nWEDNESDAY\, AUGUST 12 – 7:30 PM \nTHURSDAY\, AUGUST 13 – 7:30 PM \nFRIDAY\, AUGUST 14 – 7:30 PM \nSATURDAY\, AUGUST 15 – 2:00 PM (CLOSING) \nhttps://dorsettheatrefestival.org/advice

SUMMARY:The Dorset Theater Festival Presents: ADVICE
DESCRIPTION:ADVICE \n\nJuly 31 – August 15 \n\n\n\n\n\nA LIVELY & IRREVERENT NEW COMEDY OF BAD MANNERS \nBy Brent Askari\nDirected by Adrienne Campbell- Holt \nStarring film\, television\, and stage stars\, Katie Lowes (ABC’s Scandal) and Adam Shapiro (The Bear) \n\n\n\nABOUT THE PLAY\n\n\n\n\n\n\nNEW ENGLAND PREMIERE! This play just completed its National New Play Network Rolling World Premiere \nWhat happens when a wildly unqualified man writes a self-help book… and then shows up to test it on his friends? \nRon and Joy’s anniversary dinner goes spectacularly off the rails when Gary — recently divorced\, chronically chaotic\, and newly self-declared life coach — shows up with a surprise: a self-help book he’s written called How To Maximize The Most Successful You. The problem? His life is a mess. \nAs Ron and Joy attempt a well-meaning intervention to stop Gary from quitting his day job\, the wine starts flowing\, the “team-building” exercises begin\, and the questions get a little too real. What starts as friendly concern spirals into confessions\, accusations\, and revelations no one planned to serve with dinner. \nFast\, sharp\, and wickedly funny\, ADVICE skewers friendship\, marriage\, and the danger of asking the wrong question at exactly the right time. Brent Askari’s witty new comedy is an uncomfortably relatable look at ambition\, insecurity\, and the chaos of trying to fix someone else’s life — and will have you howling with laughter. \nFRIDAY\, JULY 31 – 7:30 PM (PREVIEW) \nSATURDAY\, AUGUST 1 – 7:30 PM (OPENING NIGHT) \nSUNDAY\, AUGUST 2 – 2:00 PM \nWEDNESDAY\, AUGUST 5 – 2:00 PM \nWEDNESDAY\, AUGUST 5 – 7:30 PM \nTHURSDAY\, AUGUST 6 – 7:30 PM \nFRIDAY\, AUGUST 7 – 7:30 PM \nSATURDAY\, AUGUST 8 – 2:00 PM \nSATURDAY\, AUGUST 8 – 7:30 PM \nSUNDAY\, AUGUST 9 – 2:00 PM \nWEDNESDAY\, AUGUST 12 – 2:00 PM \nWEDNESDAY\, AUGUST 12 – 7:30 PM \nTHURSDAY\, AUGUST 13 – 7:30 PM \nFRIDAY\, AUGUST 14 – 7:30 PM \nSATURDAY\, AUGUST 15 – 2:00 PM (CLOSING) \nhttps://dorsettheatrefestival.org/advice

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.

SUMMARY:The Dorset Theater Festival Presents: LOBBY HERO
DESCRIPTION:LOBBY HERO \n\nAugust 21 – September 5 \n\n\n\n\n\nA SMART & RIVETING TONY AWARD-WINNER \nBy Kenneth Lonergan\nDirected by M. Bevin O’Gara \n\n\n\nABOUT THE PLAY\n\n\n\n\n\n\nIn the lobby of a Manhattan apartment building\, nothing ever happens — until everything does. \nWhen a murder investigation entangles a young security guard\, his rule-bound supervisor\, and two very different police officers\, the lobby becomes a pressure cooker of secrets\, loyalties\, and shifting truths. As personal feelings collide with professional duty\, each must decide: Do you protect your principles\, your partner… or yourself? \nJeff\, a well-meaning but adrift security guard\, gets pulled into the mess when his boss’s troubled brother is arrested. Meanwhile\, a rookie cop finds herself forced to challenge her seasoned partner — and question the thin line between justice and convenience. \nSmart\, funny\, and crackling with tension\, Lobby Hero is a riveting comedy-drama about moral gray areas\, everyday heroism\, and the lies we tell — especially to ourselves. From Academy Award winner Kenneth Lonergan (Manchester by the Sea)\, this Tony Award–winning play is as gripping as it is human. \nFRIDAY\, AUGUST 21 – 7:30 PM (PREVIEW) \nSATURDAY\, AUGUST 22 – 7:30 PM (OPENING NIGHT) \nSUNDAY\, AUGUST 23 – 2:00 PM \nWEDNESDAY\, AUGUST 26 – 2:00 PM \nWEDNESDAY\, AUGUST 26 – 7:30 PM \nTHURSDAY\, AUGUST 27 – 7:30 PM \nFRIDAY\, AUGUST 28 – 7:30 PM \nSATURDAY\, AUGUST 29 – 2:00 PM \nSATURDAY\, AUGUST 29 – 7:30 PM \nSUNDAY\, AUGUST 30 – 2:00 PM \nWEDNESDAY\, SEPTEMBER 2 – 2:00 PM \nWEDNESDAY\, SEPTEMBER 2 – 7:30 PM \nTHURSDAY\, SEPTEMBER 3 – 7:30 PM \nFRIDAY\, SEPTEMBER 4 – 7:30 PM \nSATURDAY\, SEPTEMBER 5 – 2:00 PM (CLOSING) \nhttps://dorsettheatrefestival.org/lobby-hero
