The Team
Who We Are
Mark Sartor

After receiving a degree in theater from Ashland University, Mark has: toured half of the country with 4 different children's theater companies, performed in various summer stock theaters, directed at several community and professional theatres, worked locally at Cedar Point over nine separate seasons, and approximately 30 other various jobs between theatre gigs. One of his favorite theatrical endeavors was as a resident cast member, and eventually director, for a murder mystery dinner theatre company.
