MORRISVILLE — River Arts will host Rusty Dewees, local storyteller/musician/actor as he brings his brand of humor and storytelling to locals, and this time, he’s bringing friends.
Musicians Mark Burds and Patrick Ross will accompany Dewees for this show, intermingled with Dewees’ stories highlighting a Vermont way of life.
“It’s exciting to bring together some great local musicians for a night of singing and playing,” says Dewees. “Mark’s from Tundridge and Patrick’s from Canaan, so it’s a great blend of acoustic guitars, fiddle and mandolin with some of the best folk/country picking and singing around.”
“I’m also excited to introduce a young local musician Brinley Hirce who’ll play with the ‘Fellers’ for a song or two.”
Raised in Vermont since the age of seven, Dewees’ career spans from working with Robert Ringer’s Repertory Theater in Burlington to studying, acting, and working in New York, honing his storytelling skills with the heart of Vermont always present in his work.
The show begins at 6 p.m. River Arts is located at 74 Pleasant Street. Parking is in the municipal lot across the street. Tickets can be purchased ahead of time at riverartsvt.org or in person at the event.
