Maryland Ensemble Theatre Presents SUPER THE MUSICAL

Maryland Ensemble Theatre's (MET) FUN Company presents the world premiere and original work, SUPER! The Musical, written by last summer's hit production, "Camelot and the Fight For the Holy Grail", playwright Sarah Shulman, Lyrics by "Q, The Witch and the Magical Orb", writer Caitlyn Joy, and Music by Callan Holderbaum.

In the renaissance of super hero movies including, Captain America, Wonder Woman and The Incredibles, local playwright, Sarah Shulman along with musical team, Caitlyn Joy and Callan Holderbaum, don't miss a beat in contributing to the superhero madness! With Shulman's eclectic style of storytelling, SUPER! The Musical, combines music, comedy, mystery, and adventure. "I'm a big comic book nerd", Shulman admits, "and I have always wanted to write a story that breaks the traditional mold of the comic-book hero. I wanted a group of superheroes who are more silly than super and whose determination to do good is their most effective power." SUPER! The Musical features both male and female superheroes and villains! Targeted for ages 7-12 but fun for the whole family.

FUN Company artistic director and MET associate artistic director, Julie Herber, is directing this world premiere and leading the design team of Lauren Johnson on Sound Design, Scenic Design by Cecelie Lee, Bethanie Herman on Props Design, and Doug Grove on Lighting Design. The cast includes Julia Becker, Karli Cole, Jennifer Pagano, Thomas Scholtes, Daniel Valentin-Morales, and fresh-face Frederick County Public School student, Aubrie Gadra.

The Musical opens on Saturday, April 7th and runs April 7th - April 29th every Saturday and Sunday at 1:30 p.m. All tickets are $10 as part of our $20 MainStage/$10 Family Stage discount for our 20th year celebration.
