Whether you're a dramatic arts diehard or part-time patron just looking for a change from the more expensive Downtown Theater District, Black Ensemble Theater promises a downright inspiring cast of entertainers every evening (or catch their Sunday afternoon Matinée). While the company takes pride in presenting professional theater to audiences of every age, creed, and color, the niche here is a decidedly African-American take on traditional theater performances. Since its inception in 1976, Black Ensemble Theater has remained the North Side's only professional non-profit African-American theater company.
