Jeremy Stanbary, Playwright, Director, Producing Artistic Director, Sound Designer

Jeremy holds a BA in Fine & Performing Arts with over 20-years of experience producing and performing theater professionally while advancing his uniquely redemptive vision for the arts. In 2003, Jeremy began touring full-time with his original one-man and small-cast dramas. For the next 8-years, he performed for tens of thousands of people both nationally and internationally, reaching countless others via cable television. In 2011, Open Window Theatre first opened its doors in Minneapolis, and since that time, Jeremy has written six original full-length plays for the Open Window stage, his latest being Joan of Arc, which runs through May 30, 2026.
