The Ensemble Theatre<\/strong>
\nDESCRIPTION: Founded in 1976, by George Hawkins as a touring company with a mission to preserve African American artistic expression, entertain and enrich a diverse community. This professional theatre has enjoyed overwhelming growth since the 1980s, when it moved to its current home. It has since become a distinguished resident theatre able to purchase its facility in 1995. This theater can hold its own with any regional theatre in the nation. A sample of their performances which appeal to all ages and across cultures include A Lesson Before Dying, Sparkle: The Musical, Tap Dance Kid, A Pure Gospel Christmas, Johnny B. Goode, and Black Eagles. Fee-based workshops are offered for children to gain confidence and enhance creativity by participating in theatre. Master classes are offered for students to refine their theatrical skills. Year-round season and are located next to a METROrail station. Schedule your acting audition.
