Buffalo Theatre Ensemble

BTE Vision
Buffalo Theatre Ensemble (BTE) is rooted in the idea that an acting ensemble and company, who have a history of working together and have developed a sense of trust and community, can create better art. BTE is committed to the American tradition of creating believable characters in the context of the production's style.

Connie Canaday Howard (BTE Artistic Director) is a member of BTE's acting ensemble and has also directed numerous productions for BTE. Other favorite directing projects with C.O.D., where she is Director of Theater and has directed countless productions, have been Taming of the Shrew and The Heidi Chronicles, which received the award for best non-professional production in Chicagoland. Connie holds a M.F.A in directing, and has worked regionally with Three Rivers Shakespeare Festival, City Theatre Company, Belvoir Terrace, Drama Workshop, Down River Dinner Theatre, Ingersoll Theatre, Charlie's Showplace, and tours of both theatre and dance, as well as helping to create and perform several improvisational shows. Ms. Canaday Howard is COD’s Outstanding Faculty for 2003-2004.
