APTCore Company Winter Roles

If you're missing some of your favorite APT actors, we've got the intel on where you might be able to see them this winter.

For example, the quickest way to see Kelsey Brennan and Marcus Truschinski is in The Game of Love and Chance in APT's Touchstone Theatre through November 22. But if you're looking for more options, here you go:

On the Stage:

Kelsey Brennan
I'll be playing Andrea Sarti in Brecht and Hare's The Life of Galileo at Remy Bumppo in Chicago this spring, March 28 - May 1.

Nate Burger
I'm doing a David Ives "translaptation" of a Jean-Francois Regnard farce from the 17th century calledThe Heir Apparent at Chicago Shakespeare Theater November 29 through January 17. It's all in iambic pentameter and rhymed couplets and is extremely fun and irreverent. After that, I'll be inButler at Northlight Theatre in Skokie, IL (with Greg Vinkler, from Peninsula Players) about an escaped slave trying to get asylum at a union military base during the Civil War. Other than that, I'm just spending time in Chicago, prepping for the 2016 season and brewing beer, mostly.

Jim DeVita
I'll be in American Song at the Milwaukee Repertory Theater March 15 - April 10. I'm also writing a play for Forward Theater Company, and discussing my book, A Winsome Murder, whenever I have time.

Colleen Madden
I'm currently in Silent Sky at Forward Theatre Company in Madison, through November 22.

James Ridge
I'll be directing A Christmas Carol again for Children's Theater of Madison with John Pribyl as Scrooge.

Jonathan Smoots
I'll once again be playing Ebenezer Scrooge in the Milwaukee Rep's annual A Christmas Carol at the Pabst Theater

Marcus Truschinski
I'm going back to Indiana Rep to be in The Mystery of Irma Vep. In the Spring I will be in Mr Burns, a Post Electric Play at Forward. Also, James Ridge and I will once again be doing our reading series January through April at Arcadia Books in Spring Green

Off the Stage

Tracy Michelle Arnold
I'll be spending the winter in Spring Green, primarily in mom-mode.

David Daniel
As APT's education director, I'll be spending my winter traveling Wisconsin and beyond putting on workshops for a new generation of theater lovers in their classrooms.

Tim Gittings
At the moment I am tending bar at The Shed on Mondays (10-6, if you ever need to do some day drinking) and working on my house (Lee and Sandy Ernst's old place, in a strange quirk of APT history), which will probably take me most of the winter (you know, rewiring a few floors, building a new hallway, renovating a few rooms, putting a sauna in an old garage...).
