Maryland Ensemble Theatre (MET) is dedicated to the creation and production of extraordinary theatre art through the combined voices of a diverse ensemble of professional resident artists who are influential leaders in the community and visionaries in the art of theatre.
MET creates a positive environment where artists and audience share an exciting, emotional, thought provoking theatre experience for our times and our community. MET features an eclectic season of plays that are accessible; yet, challenge audiences and pique the interest of a national audience. Through open communication and life long learning‚ the MET ensemble brings an unparalleled commitment to excellence that helps shape our region by initiating creative dialogue between artists and audience; providing outreach to under served communities; and training, education, and professional development opportunities to students of theatre that will propagate MET artistic values into the American Theatre.
Our facility is a 100 seat black box theater, a classroom/rehearsal space that can house a production with 60+ audience members, a 16 person dressing room, costume shop, scene shop, and box office.
Since 1997, MET has created four full length plays (Finally Heard, Skin Deep, Democracy a Work in Progress, and the musical Planet Claire), a number of children's theatre plays (including The Rainforest Adventure, Cyranosa- the Story of a Girl and her Nose, and Mother Goose on the Loose), and countless comedy sketches and original songs (including the Comedy Pigs parody song “Weiner Dog” which was seen on the national cable channel Comedy Central).
