“We make it a point to spend a night in the area every Fall so we can attend a play/musical at this theater. The performance never ever disappoints. The bonus is the setting of the theater and the theater itself. It all fits together and creates a unique and unforgettable experience. If you enjoy regional theater, this is one to put on your list.”

Starting tomorrow, we’re in our FINAL WEEK of "George & Gracie: A Love Story", with our last performance this Saturday! Come while the leaves are still putting on their show too, and experience everything that makes a night at Northern Sky so special. 🍁 ... See MoreSee Less

“I was happy to be able to see ‘George and Gracie: A Love Story’ earlier this autumn and LOVED IT! I listen to a fair amount of old time radio shows, and the actors really nailed it as far as the voices, timing, etc., were concerned. I thoroughly enjoyed the play!”

Thank you so much for your kind words, Lisa! We’re thrilled you enjoyed the show. If you haven’t seen "George and Gracie: A Love Story" yet, there are only two weeks left to catch this hilarious and heartfelt show at the Gould Theater before we say, “Goodnight, Gracie!” 🎟️

Join us at the Gould Theater for Bourgoin Production's touring production of "The Root Beer Lady"

Written by Kim Schultz, "The Root Beer Lady" tells the story of the indomitable Dorothy Molter, the last legal non-indigenous resident of the Boundary Waters. The story reflects the beauty and hardships of Molter’s solitary yet satisfying life beginning in 1934. The play, funny and passionate, explores her independence, fortitude, and love of nature. Molter pushes back against the premise that her time in the North Woods made her the “Loneliest Woman in America,” as the Saturday Evening Post claimed in 1952. Kim Schultz is a nationally and internationally acclaimed writer, actor, and solo show artist working across mediums.

Performances are November 5-7 at the Gould Theater. Hope to see you there! ... See MoreSee Less

Last call for Backbone! Tonight is your final chance to grab a bite from Evan and his crew in our parking lot before "George & Gracie: A Love Story" at the Gould Theater. We've been so lucky to have them this past month, and we're sad to see them go! 💛

Grab your food, pair it with a drink from our concessions, and settle in on the patio or by the fire ring for a perfect crisp autumn evening before the show. ✨

But don't be too sad! Something new and delicious is rolling into the Gould next week, so stay tuned. "George & Gracie: A Love Story" runs through October 24, and there's plenty more to enjoy before it closes! ... See MoreSee Less

You've written the draft. Maybe even rewritten it. Now what?

Join NOVA Program Director Lachrisa Grandberry for a six-week Writing Circle on revision. Learn to spot what isn't working, what to cut, deepen, move, or leave alone, and how to tell whether you're making your work different or better.

Drawing on David Rush's "Building Your Play" and Susan Bell's "The Artful Edit", you'll look at revision through the lens of playwrights and musical theatre writers.

🗓 Mondays on Zoom, 9:20–11:00 AM CT, through November 2

NOVA (Nurturing Original Voices & Artists) is Northern Sky Theater's free program for writers at any level. It grows out of Northern Sky's commitment to developing new work and offers a low-pressure space where writers can experiment and develop their voices. Most programming is virtual, so writers can join whether or not they live in Door County. ... See MoreSee Less
