Winona State University is a proud partner with the Great River Shakespeare Festival (GRSF) and participates as one of the six organized street teams helping to publicize and sell tickets for the second season of this professional theatre group's performances.
Competitive ticket selling teams are organized to encourage increased ticket sales, which benefit Support Our Fine Arts (SOFA) with a $1 donation per ticket sold if at least 7,000 tickets are sold.
WSU has organized a ticket selling team, led by Tess Kruger, WSU VP of University Affairs. In the theme of Shakespearean times, WSU participants named its team "Team Buckingham."
Tickets can be purchased from WSU's Team Buckingham by contacting Tess Kruger via e-mail: tkruger@winona.edu. A Team Buckingham button is given to every person purchasing a ticket from the WSU street team.
The second season of GRSF is June 24-July 24, on the main stage of WSU's Performing Arts Center on campus, featuring the plays: Richard III and Much Ado About Nothing.
