Maryland Ensemble Theatre Presents FAMILY HOLIDAY

Maryland Ensemble Theatre (MET) proudly presents DC Cathro's world premiere production of Family Holiday as its 2016-2017 Holiday production. Directed by MET Associate Artistic Director, Gené Fouché, fresh off her direction of MET's sellout production of Bad Jews.The play will run at MET for five weeks beginning December 2nd. Thursday thru Saturday at 8pm and Sunday at 3pm. Pay-what-you-can preview on December 1st.

Family Holiday, a world première production, is not your straight-laced holiday fare. RJ goes home for the holidays, hoping to have a nice, relaxing time with his family and best friend. Things don't turn out as he expects when he arrives to find his sister newly single, his Nana on a health kick, his mother dashing in and out and his father nervous about all of the strange behavior. Secrets are revealed and RJ is stuck in the middle of this fast-paced holiday farce for modern times.

The show is written by Frederick area writer and original MET company member DC Cathro. The cast is lead by company members Lia Seltzer and Tim Seltzer(married on and off-stage!), Thom Huenger, Amanda Spellman, and Steve Custer along with Nancy Jones as Nana. The production includes veteran designers Allison Duvall (set), Cody Gilliam (costumes), Doug Grove (lights) and Ken Poisson (sound) and Rona Mensah (props). Kevin Cole is stage-managing and Caitlyn Joy is assistant stage manager.

Tickets are $24 and $26 (includes all fees) and can be purchased at 301.694.4744, marylandensemble.org or in person at the Maryland Ensemble Theatre box office.

The show is made possible in part through the support of MET's season sponsors including Comcast, Key 103, Eagle 106.9, Ausherman Family Foundation, Mark A Pitts Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery, The Frederick News Post and both the Frederick and Maryland Arts Councils and through the show-sponsored support of Holistic Health Associates.
