Door County Theater: Peninsula Players Seeks to Close Capital Campaign

Three years after announcing the capital campaign to restore and preserve a Door County tradition, Peninsula Players Theatre, America’s oldest professional resident summer theatre, appeals to the community to help close the campaign that enabled the theatre to construct a state-of-the-art stage house, audience pavilion, scene shop and concession stand.

“For 73 years Peninsula Players has been distinctive among summer theaters in the United States for the quality and diversity of its productions and its beautiful setting along the shores of Green Bay,” said Brian Kelsey, managing director. “Three years ago, the Players and many of its supporters invested in the future by funding the building of a beautiful and ecologically responsible new theater.”

The goal of Curtain Call is to raise $1.5 million and bring the curtain down on the theater’s capital campaign.

Board President, Ted Laitner, said, “As we approach our 75th anniversary, we ask you, our community, to continue to support the oldest arts organization in Door County by making a contribution, no matter how large or small, to this initiative. This commitment will help secure the future of the Players and usher in great theatrical performances for the next 75 years.”
