What To Pack for Your American Players Theatre Picnic

The 2026 season at American Players Theatre starts this weekend! The Tony Award-winning theater company in Spring Green will have shows through November. Our friend Cap Times food and culture editor Lindsay Christians is an APT expert, so she joins host Binaca Martin to run down the plays in the first half of the season, and to explain why the core acting company is bigger than ever. Plus, we get into the top tips for a great picnic.  And hey, City Cast Madison has a promo code for 20% off all shows in the Hill Theatre. Use city20 to take advantage of our sponsorship! 🥕 Join us every Thursday as we explore Madison's food culture, from the brewers and bakers to the chefs and cheesemakers. 👋 Wanna talk to us about an episode?
