PSA: American Players Theatre: Winter Words! Tickets on Sale 1/11/2023.

At long last, Winter Words is back in person in the Touchstone Theatre! And this season, we’re thrilled to present two world-premiere adaptations, and one world-premiere play written by APT Core Company Members. So join us for a story or three, each with the unforgettable energy of an early table read. Heads up – tickets for these one-night only events are in high demand, and tend to sell out quickly. Time is of the essence.

Tickets are $20, and go on sale Wednesday, January 11 at 10:00 AM CT, online only. If you need assistance with your order, email the APT Box Office at boxoffice@americanplayers.org.
