The Brevard Theatrical Ensemble, Inc. was formed by 'Lady' Gail Batty Ryan, and her sister, Mary Rae Batty Laham, 'The Duchess of Magpie'.  The organization was their way to carry on the traditions of their family storytelling and give something worthwhile back to the community.

Brevard Theatrical Ensemble, Inc. (BTE, Inc.) was the first professional storytelling ensemble in the state of Florida, and has been dedicated to serving the Space Coast since its beginning in 1988.  The members of the Ensemble have performed for more than 200,000 children and adults in Florida, South Caroline, California and Georgia.  They've been on live television, and performed weekly on WFME (90.7 Orlando's NPR) National Public Radio for 3 years.  They've performed at Disney's EPCOT Center and Nickelodeon Studios.

There are a variety of groups under the "umbrella" of BTE, Inc now... each with a different specialty.  Many members belong to more than one of the divisions, depending on their interests and talents.  Some are musical, some are historical, and all are always entertaining.
