SWE Members Take in Play

by Bernadette Cassata, Wisconsin Section Member

On a crisp autumn afternoon in September, a group of SWE members and their families enjoyed an outing to American Player’s Theatre in Spring Green for ‘The Tempest’.  While most would consider it more football weather than outdoor theatre weather, with a coat it was quite comfortable, and by the number of other theatre-goers, we were not the only ones to enjoy the natural setting. 

While it was cozy in the audience, a terrible storm was brewing on the stage, with a shipwreck as the result.  The play encompassed the themes of retribution and love, with the plot getting a lot of help from magical spells.  The acting, as usual, was outstanding and the set creatively moved from the ship to land with out really changing externally, but by using the same areas differently we could imagine the locations.

Those that attended included Vanessa, a UW-M student and her parents and grandmother, Ryan, Dina, John, Lisa, Bernadette and her daughter Christine.

Afterwards, the group stayed to enjoy a meal at the APT picnic grounds.
