WXOW News 19 focused on Shakespeare in Winona” discussing the Great River Shakespeare Festival (GRSF), our annual event in Winona, Minnesota. The festival is highly praised for its intimate theater setting and high-quality performances, featuring a mix of Shakespeare’s works and contemporary plays.
One of the highlights from a recent festival included a production of “The Winter’s Tale,” which was notable for its effective sound design and strong performances, particularly by De’Onna Prince and Emily Fury Daly. Another standout was “As You Like It,” featuring creative costume designs and a memorable wrestling scene directed with a comedic twist.
In addition to the Shakespeare plays, the festival also premiered “Imbroglio,” an original play by Melissa Maxwell, which was described as engaging and thought-provoking.
