TAP Says Hello and Goodbye

Third Avenue Playhouse (TAP) welcomes Jimmy Balistreri as its new production manager. He’ll run lighting, sound, stage management and all of the other behind-the-scenes functions. The recent Ripon College graduate has spent the last three summers in Door County working at Northern Sky Theater and Wild Tomato.

The TAP board of directors recognized outgoing President Karl Wise during its annual meeting. Wise has served on the board for four years, three as president. He spent the first half of his career as an economist and the second half as a not-for-profit association executive.

The board also voted unanimously for the next term’s new officers: Alan Kopischke as president, Tracy Vreeke as vice president, Shirley Wesse Young as secretary and Steven Kane as treasurer.
