Theater In The Park Staff Members Take On New Roles

In just a few rehearsals, Theater in the Park takes young actors and trains them to perform a Broadway musical in their own community. Two of the talented performers and educators who make that possible are Kylie Sjolie and Atticus Boidy, who have been elevated to new positions with Theater in the Park.

Kylie Sjolie

Kylie Sjolie is the new artistic director of Theater in the Park. A director, performer, producer and theater educator, Sjolie has been directing for more than 13 years and has worked with numerous youth and community theater organizations throughout Maryland.

She remains active as a performer throughout the region and has worked with organizations including Annapolis Summer Garden Theatre, Colonial Players, 2nd Star Productions and more. Sjolie has also received acting award nominations for her performances in musical theater productions.

As artistic director, Sjolie brings experience from both the educational and performance sides of theater and looks forward to helping Theater in the Park continue to grow and provide quality theatrical opportunities for young performers throughout the community.

“Because I’ve been involved with Theater in the Park since its founding, this role is especially meaningful to me,” Sjolie said. “I’ve had the opportunity to watch the organization grow from an idea into a thriving theater community for young performers. I’m honored to step into the role of artistic director and excited to continue building on that foundation while creating new opportunities for students throughout our community.”
