![]() There are no avatars marching around the kitchens barking out orders or handling the money. You take control of the tavern from an isometric view. ![]() Much like quality ale, Tavern Master has also managed to achieve the right balance between gameplay, entertainment, and task management. At the same time, the game packs enough content to keep the players entertained for a long time. It’s not as overbearing and micro-actions as heavy as some other games. The medieval game does a great job of poking the entrepreneur inside each of the players. Original Michael Bennett Choreography Adapted by Dan SullivanThe light-hearted laid back nature of Tavern Master is what makes it so interesting and appealing to the players. Memorable musical numbers include "What I Did for Love, "One," "I Can Do That," "At the Ballet," "The Music and the Mirror," and "I Hope I Get It." A brilliantly complex fusion of song, dance, and compellingly authentic drama, A Chorus Line is instantly recognized as a classic. Exploring the inner lives and bittersweet ambitions of professional Broadway performers, the show features one powerhouse number after another. The Weston Friendly Society proudly presents "A Chorus Line"!Ĭonceived & Originally Directed/Choreographed by Michael BennettĪ Chorus Line is a stunning concept musical capturing the spirit and tension of a Broadway chorus audition. We’ll all share a fridge on the second floor until the restaurant arrives, or draw straws to see who walks down to Weston Provisions for sandwiches and bowls (the latter a new menu item, yum!) Weston Forest & Trail Association will get out of the woods and into a corner second-floor office sometime in 2023, and I do not have an update on the third nonprofit which is the Women’s Community League, soon to be re-branded as Weston Community League. Weston Historical Society will *probably* be the first in, taking most of the ground floor. In addition, none of the three nonprofits has moved into the Tavern space–all have been awaiting the master lease in order to have their individual subleases. So, there’s the update on the restaurant. Build out cost is the responsibility of the restaurant tenant and is to be paid by them.Īdrienne said that the Friends will begin posting regular updates on the Town website soon. After a finalist is selected and terms are negotiated, build out of the space can be expected to take 5-8 months, and cost well over $1,000,000. However, serious conversations can not begin until the Town/Friends lease is complete. Six restaurant groups have toured the space so far and were enthusiastic about it. The Friends of the Tavern hold a liquor license for the space, granted them at Town Meeting in May 2008. The space is expected to accommodate about 105 seats, with extra space available in the community room when needed. ![]() Once the master lease between the Town and the Friends is complete, they can formally begin the process of sub- leasing the space to a carefully selected “farm to table” restaurant operator. The Friends’ friendly attorney will be reviewing the draft. The draft has been under development since late 2021. The Friends of the JST received a 37-page draft master lease from the Select Board on December 24, 2022. Many thanks to Chris Paquin for sending on the following report:Īdrienne Giske of the Friends of the Josiah Smith Tavern gave a progress report on Tuesday, January 10, to the Weston Historical Commission. ![]() He also listened very carefully to the JanuHistorical Commission meeting. I can’t answer even half of those questions but fortunately, we have a crack reporter on the case, who got the following update from Adrienne Giske of Friends of the JST. Are we ever going to have a place to eat edamame and quaff Trillium on tap? How many years can I re-use the April Fools joke about McDonald’s moving in? Have we spent enough time in rumor and innuendo on the community Facebook page? Are we even blaming the correct guilty parties there? So what’s been going on in the background? So many questions. There, I’ve summed up at least 200 years for you all–you can also read more about the Tavern and particularly the renovation in this Owl from October 2021. ![]() During 2022, the tavern side (as opposed to the barn side) was also the host to the Historical Society’s wonderful exhibit, History Under One Roof. Once surrounded by elm trees and frequented by colonials, the Tavern went through many iterations, like an actual tavern, carriage-making, a home, a place to get second-hand clothes, and after a Town Meeting vote, a construction site for more than two years. If you live or have lived in Weston, or spent hours trying to get across the Intersection of Doom, you will be familiar with our postcard-worthy Josiah Smith Tavern. ![]()
