A perfect summer day at the APT...

The Mr. and I have been going out to the APT--the American Players Theatre, in Spring Green, WI--for, oh, about 10 years now. We used to go twice in the summer--stopped at the farmer's market in Madison, check in to a hotel, get stuff for our picnic dinner, and head on out to Spring Green to picnic and enjoy the theater. Since the little man joined us, we've gone out just once in the summer, and we try to pack in both plays. The farmer's market is a casualty, and I admit to missing it tremendously. In a few years though, hopefully the little man will join us on our jaunts out there...

Yesterday was this summer's trip out to Spring Green. It was a beautiful day--THANK YOU Mother Nature! And the plays--The Winter's Tale and Henry V, works of the illustrious Bard himself. Every year we head out there, remembering plays of years past, and the wonderful job the cast does; hoping that this time, it'll be just as magical as it's been the last 10 years.

And the APT delivered. Phenomenal acting. Mine weren't the only pair of not-quite-dry eyes in the audience for The Winter's Tale. And Henry V was masterfully delivered. If you've never been to the APT, you should plan now for next summer.
