Show Notes

What if your next night at the theater included a sunset, a picnic, and a stage nestled in the heart of nature?

On this episode of #MPC, we’re joined by Dustin Martin, Artistic Director of Summer Stage of Delafield, an outdoor theater company bringing performing arts to life in Lapham Peak State Park. Dustin shares how this unique nonprofit blends storytelling with the natural beauty of Wisconsin to create an unforgettable, immersive experience.

We dive into what sets Summer Stage apart, from its “tailgating for theater” culture to the magic and unpredictability of performing under the open sky. Dustin also offers a behind-the-scenes look at balancing creativity with environmental stewardship and producing high-quality theater powered largely by volunteers.
