Community Theatre Excellence in NEPA with the Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble
Founded in 1978, the Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble is one of the premier NEPA community theatre companies. Recognized nationally by American Theatre Magazine as “one of the most celebrated groups of artists in theatre,” the group brings exceptional performances and artistic experiences to the community. This professional ensemble of actors, directors, and designers performs at the historic Alvina Krause Theatre in Bloomsburg, creating a welcoming atmosphere for all theatre lovers.
Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble’s performances cover a diverse range of genres, from classic plays to contemporary works, with a special focus on productions that reflect the local community. They also host exciting holiday shows, perfect for the whole family to enjoy during the festive season. The Alvina Krause Theatre provides an intimate setting, allowing audiences to feel connected to the story and the performers.
In addition to the regular performance season, Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble is dedicated to nurturing the next generation of artists and theatre enthusiasts. They offer summer camps for kids, as well as youth and adult theatre classes, where participants can develop their skills and passion for the arts. The ensemble also holds adult play readings, offering a platform for new works and discussion around important themes in theatre.
The organization’s commitment to community engagement goes beyond the stage, with unique fundraising events such as the Kayak Day on the Susquehanna River and Pitchfork to Plate, a farm-to-table dining experience featuring locally sourced food.
