This annual Wisconsin Trout Stream Restoration Workshop was established by Dr. Ray White in 2013. It brings together scientists, resource managers, and practitioners to explore the science, management, and restoration of trout streams and their connected landscapes. Through expert presentations, case studies, and facilitated discussion, the workshop examines how physical, biological, and social processes interact across streams, riparian corridors, wetlands, and watersheds. The emphasis for this professional development opportunity is on understanding natural processes, evaluating restoration and management approaches, and applying science-informed perspectives to real-world decision-making in diverse ecological and regional contexts. State, government, tribal agencies, private employers and students with a vested interest in wetland restoration would greatly benefit from attending this workshop.

The Welkin Toland Theatre, 150 Lowe Center for the Arts Multiple dates (6 upcoming)

Read more about The Welkin

Lucy Kirkwood’s The Welkin is a sweeping, provocative drama that plunges audiences into an isolated 18th‑century English village where justice, morality, and womanhood collide. Set in 1759 rural England, a young woman, Sally Poppy, is convicted of murder and claims she is pregnant to escape execution.  A jury of local women is assembled to decide whether she truly carries new life or faces the gallows. What unfolds is a gripping examination of power, privilege, and the silenced voices of women, as each juror’s own history, hardship, and belief shapes the verdict. By turns tense, surprising, and darkly witty, The Welkin asks urgent questions about who gets to decide truth, whose lives are valued, and how personal experience becomes political. The Welkin asks: What does justice look like when women are finally allowed to speak? And who gets to decide the truth when belief itself becomes a battlefield?

Read more about Gruesome Playground Injuries

Gruesome Playground Injuries is a raw, darkly funny, and deeply affecting exploration of love, pain, and the marks we carry from childhood into adulthood. Tracking the lives of Kayleen and Doug through a series of out‑of‑order vignettes, the play reveals their complicated bond through moments of physical injury and emotional vulnerability—skinned knees, broken bones, broken hearts. As they reconnect again and again over three decades, their relationship becomes a haunting portrait of intimacy, dependency, and the ways we both hurt and heal one another. By turns tender, unsettling, and unexpectedly humorous, Gruesome Playground Injuries invites audiences to piece together a story that feels strikingly human, asking how much pain we endure for love—and whether some connections are impossible to escape. Tender, unsettling, and unexpectedly funny, Gruesome Playground Injuries is a powerful portrait of two people bound by timing, trauma, and the complicated ways we learn to love.

Read more about A Christmas Carol

John Mortimer’s sparkling adaptation of A Christmas Carol brings fresh wit, theatrical flair, and deep-hearted warmth to Dickens’s beloved holiday classic. The story follows the cold‑hearted miser Ebenezer Scrooge, whose cheerless Christmas Eve is interrupted by the ghost of his long‑dead partner, Jacob Marley, and three haunting visitors who reveal the past that shaped him, the present he is poisoning, and the grim future that awaits if he refuses to change. As Scrooge is led through bustling streets, humble homes, and haunting visions, the enduring images of Tiny Tim, the Cratchit family, and the joy of human kindness come vividly to life. Mortimer’s version revels in theatrical storytelling—swiftly shifting scenes, lively narration, and moments of humor that sit beautifully alongside genuine pathos—honoring the timeless message of redemption while keeping the tale fast‑moving, playful, and deeply moving. At once festive and poignant, this A Christmas Carol celebrates generosity, compassion, and the miraculous possibility of change, making it a perfect holiday experience for audiences of all ages.

John Glore’s delightful stage adaptation of Flora & Ulysses springs to life with humor, heart, and just the right touch of superhero magic. Based on Kate DiCamillo’s beloved novel, the story follows comic‑book‑loving Flora Buckman, whose quiet afternoon is turned upside down when a vacuum cleaner accident transforms a neighborhood squirrel into Ulysses—a poetry‑writing, nut‑loving superhero with remarkable powers. Together, Flora and her unlikely friend embark on an adventure filled with comic mishaps, eccentric adults, and surprising acts of bravery, all while discovering what it truly means to believe. Joyful and imaginative, the play gently explores themes of hope, empathy, and the courage to open one’s heart. With its playful tone, whimsical characters, and uplifting message about friendship and self‑confidence, Flora & Ulysses is a perfect theatrical experience for families and young audiences—a charming reminder that even the smallest heroes can change the world.
