“Single Carrot Theatre is poised to play an integral part in the fabric of Baltimore,” said Fenhagen in a statement. “Navigating this ensemble through its transition from an innovative DIY startup into sustainable, far-reaching, and mature organization while guarding SCT’s vitality and risk-taking nature is a wonderful and exciting opportunity. The coming season is filled with new and original work that I believe our patrons would not see elsewhere.”
