Nice seating. Good concessions. It's cold and outdoors.
If you haven't seen a play, what are you waiting for? Amazing Wisconsin treasure. We can't wait for the next season.
Great atmosphere to see a high quality play. I would recommend this place and I will go back. Picnic before the play or get something to eat and drink here.
APT has been a favorite place to go in my family for many years. I've never left feeling disappointed in a play. My all time favorite production of theirs was their rendition of Pride and Prejudice. It's one of my favorite stories and they exceed my expectations. APT is all about the experience. Our favorite way to go to APT is to bring a picnic dinner and enjoy it on their beautiful picnic grounds. It's extra fun because they always have live music playing too. After the picnic, there's a short hike up the hill to the outdoor theater. The theater itself is beautiful. They've built it into nature in a way that makes the stage a natural beauty. Depending on when you go, it can be chilly and/or buggy. They have bug spray for you to use, but I recommend bringing layers! Overall, APT is one of my favorite places to go with extremely talented actors and staff.

APT has been around for a long time and for good reason. They have amazing performers and a beautiful outdoor setting. It's definitely the best way to experience Shakespeare and other classic plays in Wisconsin! You can even picnic on the groundsjust don't forget to prepare for the weather!
Classical theatre in the woods, one venue inside, one outside. Very well done. My suggestion, however, is to go with an evening performance if you see one of the outside shows, the matinees can be warm and sunny. Of course that's beside the point if you're going to an inside performance Also lots of picnic spots are available. Again, very well done.
Top notch productions in a magical outdoor setting. Bring a picnic dinner before and enjoy the grounds. Then see some of the finest actors in the US create amazing plays. Highly recommended!
Such a beautiful, peaceful place. We enjoyed a picnic basket dinner before the play, and had a wonderful night. We make a point to come to APT at least once a year, and look forward to it. Everything runs like clockwork here, and it's a magical experience. I highly recommend it.
One of the best theater experiences you will ever have regardless of which play you pick. The Open Air Theatre is an experience in itself and the actors bring the Productions to life in a way that is seldom experienced in any other venue.
This is a lovely place to enjoy high quality theater. Bring a picnic or BBQ to ear before the play, then enjoy a post-picnic stroll up the hill or catch a shuttle bus to the play. A regional highlight.
There's no question that this is the best theater company in Wisconsin, perhaps the best in the Upper Midwest. I've heard it called the best in the country, but I can't attest to that. What I can say is that it combines magical atmosphere with superb acting talent to create some of the most memorable experiences I've ever had.
Always a professional, amazing show. Wehave been coming for 4 years now and it seems to only improve. If you love classic theater, there is nothing like this outside of a large city and this company bests many of the big city companies.
Do yourself a favor and go to APT--you won't be disappointed. It is top quality theater in a beautiful setting. The acting, design, directing, front of house staff, organization, and price rival any theater I've been to in Milwaukee, Chicago, or Door County. The price of tickets is definitely worth it. And, for a theater that is on the top of a hill in the middle of a forest, they are incredibly accessible--patrons who can't walk up the hill or otherwise need assistance can be taken by shuttle or drive up an access road with also immediate access to setting. There is plenty of leg room in the seating area, and no bad seats in the house. The concessions are delicious and not what you would typical find at a theater (hot cocoa, coffee, trail mix) among other things. Everyone who I interacted with who worked there seemed as though they genuinely love their jobs and are working together to make the best experience possible for all patrons, not just those with the expensive seats or those who gave money. They are remodeling their main theatre, and I can't wait to see what they've done!
