Puppeteer. Performer. Playwright.

A Little Bit About Me, Sean P. Mette!

 

I’ve always loved a good story. I love writing them, performing them and seeing them performed on stage. I am a graduate of Capital University and have been fortunate enough to return as an adjunct professor and guest lecturer.

As a Cincinnati based artist, I am proud to have worked with many of the local theaters including the Know Theatre of Cincinnati, The Carnegie and OTRimprov (of which I am a founding member).

I started my professional theatrical career touring the country for Madcap Puppets. After touring the country, performing in over 25 different puppet shows, with hundreds of performances to thousands of children; I settled back in my hometown to begin creating my own stories and bringing them to life on stage.
