Actors Ensemble of Berkeley invites proposals from potential DIRECTORS for our Summer 2026 season at the John Hinkel Park Amphitheatre in Berkeley. We are seeking bold, thoughtful, and creative productions that are well-suited to our outdoor venue and align with our mission to present accessible, engaging theater to the East Bay community.
Actors Ensemble is very proud of our acclaimed production of Death of a Salesman, which closes its run today in a sold-out final performance. This production would not be the success it is without the contributions of the entire cast and staff. With heavy hearts, we'd like to especially remember on this day the composer and performer of the beautiful, heartfelt original music for this production, Jeff Dunn, who also designed and recorded the various sound effects in cooperation with the cast. Jeff passed away suddenly and unexpectedly on November 21st.
Berkeleyside Arts writer, Emily S. Mendel, gave our of production of Moliers's The Imaginary Invalid a glowing review See: Totally fun and totally free, Moliere’s ‘The Imaginary Invalid’ shines. Jump the fold for a few quotes from the review.
Actors Ensemble of Berkeley is delighted to acknowledge the Berkeley Civic Arts Program and Civic Arts Commission's support in the form of a grant of $8,000.00 awarded in 2017. Also, a thank you to Theatre Bay Area for a grant of $2,500.00.
