Local actor, writer and comedian Rusty DeWees, best known as “The Logger,” brings his Tiny Town Hall Tour to Waterbury Center’s Grange Hall Cultural Center on Saturday and Sunday, April 23-24. 

The famed Vermont storyteller, jokester and songwriter will share some new tales and some old favorites in “Down From Elmore Mountain” at 7:30 p.m.

DeWees says the past two years have given him the opportunity to improve his flat-picking guitar work and vocals, and write some fresh material that promises plenty of Logger-style authentic thoughts and jabs on daily life. 

DeWees said he is looking forward to the Waterbury appearances. “Especially cause the Grange Hall theater space was made for my show...a show that harkens to the ol’ kitchen tonks which were ubiquitous on Howard Ave in Waterbury Center, back in the day...this is your Mom and Dad’s comedy and music show,” he said, calling it “rated SC (Some Cussing) and NZ (Not Zoom).”

Tickets: $20, general seating, available online at sevendaystickets.com or by calling 802-244-4168. More information: grangehallcc@gmail.com.
