GREAT BARRINGTON â After a year-and-a-half without in-person music, The Guthrie Center reopens Thursday with the Ramblin Hoot and Annie s (Guthrie) Birthday!, hosted by Rick Robbins.

“That has been a frustration for everyone and not just for those of us trying to get the vaccine, but also for the organizations trying to supply the vaccine,” Dottie said.
