Maria Wyland

Secretary

Maria Wyland was born and raised on Long Island, New York, but nearly qualifies as a La Veta “native” after 36 years in town. Local theater audiences may remember her starring role as the recently deceased (but hard to forget) “Maria Rosetti” in Death by Dessert, “Louise the Cat Burglar” in Happy Hollandaise, the hapless “Monica” in the spring 2011 production of Oprah Made Me Do It and the cash-strapped bistro owner "Maria Mangiate" in the FCPA's dinner theater production of Whack Whack . . . Or Say Goodbye, Mob Style! at Sammie's in La Veta. Maria also appeared as game show contestant “Peyton” in the dinner theater show Paradise Is Murder at The Timbers. A former title examiner (with the erstwhile Stewart Title) by day, Maria gives back to the community in her spare time, whether it’s leading a girl scout troop, teaching Sunday school, or fighting fires as a former member of the volunteer La Veta Fire Department. In recent years she has been an enthusiastic participant in the FCPA, lending her time and considerable talent to the theater’s productions and serving for many years as its Secretary on the FCPA Board of Directors.
