Maryland Ensemble Theater
The Maryland Ensemble Theater, established in 1997, is a professional Theater company located in my hometown of Frederick MD. When I was 19 I joined MET as a member of their company ensemble. MET did not just provide a stage for my shows, it was an integral part of their creation. Through MET I got to work with many talented actors and designers who were the first ever to perform their roles or design their particular element. These actors and designers greatly influenced the scripts and the final product you see presented on this site.
