America’s oldest professional resident summer theater and a Door County landmark will not have an autumn season this year. Peninsula Players Theatre announced Tuesday that the fall performance of Richard Dresser’s "Rounding Third” is canceled. Managing Director Brian Kelsey says economic factors and safety concerns for artists, volunteers, patrons, employees, and the community, led to the difficult decision. He notes that other factors played a role.

The 85th summer season was canceled back in April. The last time any Peninsula Player Theatre productions were canceled dates back to World War II. The 2021 season will deliver the shows that were planned for this year.
