Ensemble Shakespeare Company

Ensemble Shakespeare Company We believe Shakespeare is for all. Our ensemble includes our audience.

We stand for theater that is present, connected, vital, and necessary for the time we live in: theater that holds the mirror up to nature and helps us understand the human condition. We know anyone can connect to the heightened language and profound ideas of Shakespeare when the plays are explored with clarity, craft, and connection. Together, we enjoy a shared responsibility for fathoming the complexities of Shakespeare’s plays. In this joint venture, we embrace this collective agency in raising our minds and hearts to the demands of these challenging texts, and thus create the immediacy and intimacy only experienced in theatre. Through this communal and inclusive storytelling, we hold the mirror up to nature, reflecting our shared humanity and delivering theatre that moves, challenges, heals, and changes us.

Two upcoming opportunities to work with ESC later this month. Our Friday workouts use Rodenburg work to support actors in approaching Shakespeare's text. Speak the Speech classes allow students to go even deeper by applying these techniques to an entire Shakespeare monologue.

We would love to see you there! You can sign up for classes on our website at the link in our bio! Spots are limited, so act fast!

(Note, you must have attended at least two Friday Workouts before attending a Speak the Speech Class.)
