Ensemble Theatre Community School

Community We believe that a group is only as strong as each of its members, and therefore, the contributions of every member of the community are essential. Learning to trust each other and to take creative risks are crucial aspects of the ETC experience. Our intensive, group-oriented structure encourages the understanding that the ensemble process - both on stage and off- is vital in the creation of meaningful theater. "This summer has given me the experience of working in a real theatre and has taught me how to live in a community that is run by the spirit and willingness of its members." --Caroline In learning to take responsibility for the
day-to-day needs of a community, ETC students learn
some of the most important elements of exciting theater:
communication, commitment, spontaneity, self-discipline, hard work,
and fun. Eagles Mere is a small summer
community in Pennsylvania's Allegheny Mountains. The town
has a history of encouraging the performing arts and makes
the DeWire Center, the community arts facility, available to
the school. The beautiful surroundings - a lake, a
supervised beach, and many hiking trails- offer a peaceful
environment apart from the distractions of urban
life.
