Rose Hall at Prohibition River presents the Moonshine Theater Festival.
A two evening theater event featuring the following plays:
Friday : In “The Village Cidiot,” a dyed-in-the-wool Manhattanite loses her big corporate job and retires, reluctantly, to a tiny upstate town.
Will her city skills be any match for rural reality, or will marauding bears, a bad septic, and hostile locals defeat her first?
A hilarious and heartfelt journey about navigating life’s disruptions with humor, compassion, and tick repellent.
