JESSE BOWRON
(Robin Hood)
It has been quite a long hiatus since Jesse last was able to perform on stage. While much has changed, not just in the world, but within himself; the one thing that hasn’t changed is how much his heart yearns for Theatre. His passion lies in the telling of a story alongside his fellow performers; learning things along the way, and in turn teaching something to the viewer. Sharing something that is bigger than ourselves, that brings joy and laughter, and perhaps has us going home in a more evolved state than when we first arrived.
You might remember Jesse from such roles as Romeo in ROMEO & JULIET, a show produced by PlazaCo for Shakespeare in the Park, Zorro in ZORRO THE MUSICAL, Lt. William Seawright in DEAR RUTH or perhaps the last show he performed at Plaza, THE COMPLEAT WORKS OF WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE.
“I hope that this show that is full of laughs, romance, bravery, justice and heart lifts you up as much as it did me. Also, I’d like to give special thanks to my dog Luna, who had grown ever

ABBY WATSON MARTINEZ
(Player)
When she was a child, Robin Hood was her favorite legend. The story planted seeds in her heart. A yearning for something other, something bigger than herself. A type of courage and passion that inspired her to forge her own path through the forest and take the road less traveled by. She is absolutely delighted that this should be her Plaza debut.
You may recognize her from various seasons of The Promise, or from several roles with Cleburne's Carnegie Players. When at home, she enjoys spending her time painting, cooking, or snuggled up with her cat and a good book. She would like to thank her husband, Freddy, for all his love and support: " I love you Dearling."
