Calling all poets, poetry lovers, writers, English teachers,
educators, and wordsmiths. The 3rd Annual Lorine Niedecker Wisconsin Poetry Festival offers you a weekend full of workshops, speakers, open poetry readings, round tables, landmark tours, and the infamous writers cafe.

Living most of her life on the shores of the Rock River near Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin, she is perhaps best known as a poet of place who wrote about the Blackhawk Island that she loved.

October 14 - 22, 2011 - "The Altos: Like the Sopranos, only Lower"
An Interactive Musical Comedy Mystery Spoof of the famous HBO series. Meet the family that inspired it all, the Altos. It's Tony's funeral (or is it?) and his wife Toffee has invited you to the wake. Chris wants you should check your weapons at the door (and if you don't have any, he's got extras!) Uncle Senior has a rigged dice game going and Tony's Ma is - well - just nuts. Tony's shrink Dr. Malaise is giving free analysis and the Father isn't sure what he is doing! But one thing is for sure, almost no one seems sad that Tony is gone and they certainly don't seem happy once he's discovered alive. Be prepared to dodge bullets, laugh at the songs and see if you can't figure out who put a contract out on Tony!
