Peninsula Players Announces 77th Season - Mar 21, 2012 - 8:20:00 AM

Peninsula Players.
Peninsula Players Theatre, America’s oldest professional resident summer theater and Door County’s theatrical icon, announces its 77
th season, running June 12 through October 14, 2012.  


Peninsula Players will open on June 12 with the Wisconsin premiere of “Opus”
by Michael Hollinger. Beethoven and Bach underscore a behind-the-music glimpse into a highly-strung string quartet.  The quick hiring of a gifted, but inexperienced replacement prior to an important concert strikes discord as personalities clash while tempers and passion rise.  From the creator of “Red Herring,” comes a play with humor, heat, high notes and hysterics. “Opus” will have a two week run closing June 24.
