The Peninsula Players, America’s oldest resident summer theater, has a history which is as captivating as the plays staged at the theater during the past 88 years. And it began simply with “two planks and a passion.”
Patrons have returned year after year, drawn by the theater’s tradition of providing exceptional professional productions of classic and contemporary literature. They are also delighted by the talent of its acting company and the theater’s serene location in Door County along the shores of Green Bay.
