Frankenstein
Frankenstein gets reanimated and reimagined in this ensemble devised version of the classic horror story. Inspired by Mary Shelley’s gothic novel, this visually and viscerally stunning exploration of science, creation, isolation and ego will be a thrilling experience in storytelling. A complex play on the idea of monster and victim will make you question humanity and wonder what responsibility does the creator have to the creation.
Pickle My Monkey
Maryland Ensemble Theatre’s original comedy. A femme fatale seeks refuge under a sexual ruse to take advantage of everyone in her wake, while an artist paints, a singer sings, and a conspiracy theorist hits the jackpot. (Recommended for Mature Audiences, originally produced May 16 – June 9, 2013)
Fun Company

The God of this World
A divorced New York City lawyer tries to convince his unemployed blogger daughter that her affair with an extraterrestrial is a fantasy. Once the lawyer’s ex-wife hears about the situation, she becomes intent on stopping any alien ‘invasion’ that may be in progress. In tandem, the daughter’s yoga-loving, poly-amorous friend meets a Harvard physicist and tests the bounds of left and right brain compatibility. The result is heady and hilarious.
