A Midsummer Night's Dream -- by William Shakespeare

One of the Bard's best-known and best-loved plays.

Romance, comedy, jealousy, strife, magic, and pure slapstick farce abound in the Athenian forests of Duke Theseus.  Come join this delightful romp through one of Shakespeare's most popular plays.  

Oh Susannah -- by Robert E. Hollmann

Another World Premiere at the Globe!

Based on one of Robert E. Hollmann's  Alamo Series books, the story of Susannah Dickinson, a survivor of the battle, comes to life through the eyes of her rag doll.  Add inspiring original music to the play and you have a delightful music for all ages.

Mary's Wedding

From Canada, "Mary's Wedding" is set in 1917 and has a two person cast.  Ryan Schabach (from last year's Festival) and Beth Hopp are playing these roles.
