In a largely rural state like Vermont, the inner workings of municipal government, as well as their regular public manifestations, don’t go unnoticed by the citizens. The deal making, drama, and even the petty and sometimes drab nature of proceedings consume local news, if not word of mouth and gossip, often giving life to an entire cadre of “experts” and conspiracy theorists.

It’s important then, to keep all of this in mind when attending The Dorset Players’ second show of their 98th season, Pulitzer and Tony nominated “The Minutes” by Tracy Letts, directed by Jonathan Pate and produced by Derryl Lang and Mark McChesney.
