Why is This Popular Actor in the Hudson Valley

You just don't know who you will spot in the Hudson Valley on any given day. We are lucky to live in a place in New York that people gravitate to for work and play. And in the case of Timothy Busfield, he landed in Ellenville to work in a play.

Earlier this year the Shadowland Stages at 157 Canal Street in Ellenville announced their 2022 schedule and one of the productions is SAFE HOME, a play by Tom Hanks. Yes, that Tom Hanks, and James Glossman which is based on stories by Tom Hanks. Tom and James co-wrote the play and James is its director.

Hudson Valley Rentals Where You Might Find Famous People

Ever wonder where all the famous people who visit the Hudson Valley go to stay while they are working on a film in the Hudson Valley. We hear about all these famous stars in the area making movies but where would they live while they were here. Surely they could stay with friends I guess but I am thinking one of these homes could be a great hold-up for someone needing to be off the grid but close by for work. All of these homes are listed for rent at $15,000 a month just $500 a day. Definitely in an actor's budget. Pick one you would want to rent.
