The CENTER for Performing Arts at Rhinebeck — Attraction in Town of Rhinebeck

I am a 7th grade teacher. Each fall I bring my students to see a play at The Center for Performing Arts at Rhinebeck. This year we saw Inherit the Wind, but in years past we've seen Sunrise at Campobello, Sleepy Hollow, Into the Woods, The Telltale Heart. Rhinebeck is always such a pleasure to work with. They are accommodating of our school schedule and usually arrange special performances just for our school. They are generous with their time, and the cast and crew always provides an opportunity for a Q&A session with our students. The theater is small and quaint (not a bad seat in the house!) and picturesque with a lovely lawn outside where our students eat lunch. Rhinebeck is a great place to see great theater. The productions are always artful and unique and the acting is fantastic. I've been back without my students and will always check what's playing! A wonderful option for theater...

I love musicals and I go to about 2 or 3 a season at the Center. They are always amazing. The quality of the talent in their shows is amazing for community - or ANY- theater. Once in a while I have to rate one of their performances from my usual 10/10 to a 12 or 15. That's what I thought of last night's performance of La Cage. Many of the same wonderful talents perform over and over, but they have some newer young talents that I am just loving. I don't want to name names, because all the performers deserve to think I am referring to them.

I can't wait for The Producers, one of my three favorite musicals ever, but I really do miss the Gilbert & Sullivan shows.

Thank you, to everyone involved in...

Two shows watched here thus far. Jesus Christ Superstar was transcendent! Unconventional casting. Good amplification without being overly loud. Intimate seating with good views from anywhere in the house. The only downside is that there are only three single-occupant bathrooms, so the lines during intermission will be long. Concessions available. Ticketing on-site and on-line. Ample...
