Third Mask was organized in 2011 by two Freedom High School students who were involved in the school's FREDDY award-winning musical theatre program. Nicholas Conti and Jonathan Hoffman gathered like-minded friends and classmates to stage annual productions including Waiting for Godot; Assassins; You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown; and Seussical! Conti continues to serve Third Mask as its Artistic Director.
The cast includes adults, and students in college, high school and middle school, with 12 local schools represented. Many FREDDY award-nominated students are in the cast, and most company members have participated in a FREDDY-nominated or winning production while in high school.
