Yellow Tree Short Play Fest Runs 6/5-6/27 At Yellowtree Theatre

By:

Yellow Tree Short Play Festival- A little something for everyone
Be the first to see the world premiere of 200 Feet and Counting by two-time Heideman Award Winner Marco Ramirez. The world comes to a stand-still when Ian (Blake Berguson) wakes up one morning 200 feet taller. Perched on top of a synagogue, even the slightest movement will crush innocent bystanders below. His sister, Debra (Jessie Rae Johnson) is sent by the government to end the ordeal. Don't miss this surprising, touching and oddly funny new play!

Celebrate our One Year Anniversary!
Yellow Tree is celebrating its one year anniversary and YOU are invited! Join us for free drinks, a free dessert buffet sponsored by Buca di Beppo-Maple Grove and live music on Friday, June 5th after opening night of our Short Play Festival! What could be better than an evening of hysterical new plays followed by scrumptious desserts, live music and a drawing where you'll have a chance to win Yellow Tree season tickets?
