Queen of Winternet

Well, how cool is this? We just found this by surfing the net, but back in December 1996, the Burlington (Wisconsin) High School Drama Club put on a performance of Susan Galbraith's "Queen of Winternet", a mummer play that the local morris teams performed on May Day in 1995. We have to assume that Susan knew about this at the time since both the performance and the play are referenced on Peter Millington's article on modern mummer play compositions, "This is a Mummers’ play I wrote." See also the reference on the Traditional Drama Research Group's "Folk Play Links - Modern Compositions & Adaptations".
