Meet Benedick. When it comes to a battle of wits, Benedick is the fastest draw there is. With sarcasm and humor, he uplifts his compatriots,  And is determined to maintain his forever-bachelor status. After all, with a sworn brother to fight alongside, Who needs Beatri--I mean, women. Who needs WOMEN? He's practically unmovable -  Just so long as a particular lady doesn't move him to change his ways... WE OPEN IN SEVEN DAYS! Get tickets at the link in our bio. Tickets for opening weekend are almost gone! We can’t wait to share this adaptation with you! ❤️❤️ #EnsoMuchAdo #HouseParty #ImmersiveTheater #portland #PortlandTheater #Pdxtheater #muchadoaboutnothing #shakespeare #bardedladies #thingstodopdx #funnightout #affordable #supportthearts #livingthedream #beatrice #benedick #josswhedon #enso #mindfulness #mindfulartist #letsdothis #comingsoon https://www.instagram.com/p/B2F8KiNh7Rs/?igshid=1obap8txfakhg

Meet Beatrice. 🌺 When it comes to a battle of wits, Beatrice is the fastest draw there is. The life of the party, she’s owns the spotlight, And her single-lady status. With good friends and a glass of wine, Who needs Benedi--I mean, men. Who needs MEN? She’s practically unflappable - Just so long as long as a particular gentleman doesn’t come flapping her way... . “Much Ado” opens Sept. 13th! . Tickets are ON SALE NOW! Don’t wait, we have VERY limited seating in this show! . Link in bio.❤️ .

Today we’re celebrating Tim Fodge, Maddie Hall and Arden Roddie. 🐦 Tim Fodge joined the ensemble back in 2016 for some set design, but most recently you’ve seen him as Benedick in “Much Ado” last fall. Tim brings an endless amount of compassion and joy to every room, and no doubt you, too, have been captivated and inspired by his grounded yet big-energy performances. There more Tim coming soon, with “East of the Sun, West of the Moon.” 🐾 Maddie Hall joined the ensemble just this past January as our Marketing Manager but has already transformed our process and made herself an invaluable member of the team. Maddie is helping us to streamline our marketing procedure, analyze statistics, and set and maintain goals. She has the biggest heart, her organization is on par with Leslie-Knope-binder levels, and her insight into growing our audience has been deeply appreciated. An artist herself, Maddie designs decals that are otter-ly adorable and frequently inspired by her dogs. Check them out here: @otterbecrafting 🌺 Arden Roddie has designed every poster for every show we’ve ever done, classes, too, and has edited many of our videos. Her most recent show poster captured the faces of Madeline, Helena and Caitlin for “Much Ado.” Arden’s uncanny ability to take a word vomit of poster ideas and create something visionary with them is invaluable. An actor herself, we are so grateful to have her phenomenal skills helping us add to the world of each story we make. You’ve already seen her early designs for “East of the Sun, West of the Moon,” so stay tuned for more art from her inspired by our next project. See what else she’s made here: @ardenrachelart To support these wonderful artists and the rest of the ensemble, please donate and share the link in our bio! In doing so, you are helping us get closer to being able to pay these folks during the pandemic.💜 Thank you for helping Enso survive COVID19, and for supporting theater made with mindfulness! ❤️Caitlin & The Ensemble #supportthearts #eyesontheensemble #thankyou #donate #covid19 #portlandtheater #pdxtheater #todaysinspiration https://www.instagram.com/p/CAVqoGHB04R/?igshid=jel0frlbvrdo
