This will be the Wisconsin premiere of Dear Camp! The original story, written by Lisa MacDonald, is set in the remote white pine forests of northern Michigan. It follows Hildy, a grieving widow, and her sometimes contentious friends, as they gather in a secluded cabin. The group’s mission is to prepare the cabin for an imminent sale. However, their plans take an unexpected turn due to an overabundance of alcohol, a surprise blizzard, and the discovery of a personal diary belonging to Hildy’s late husband. The mystery deepens as the diary reveals a long-hidden secret: a relationship with someone named Cupcake.

 

There is always something happening at the theater! The comedy Rumors by Neil Simon will be performing on September 19-20 and 26-28. Tickets are on sale. For further information about the group, please contact the Watertown Players at (920)306-4364 or follow the Watertown Players on Facebook.
