Description
What is Encore
Encore Studio for the Performing Arts offers an innovative, inclusive, and professional environment where all people work together in the pursuit of artistic and theatrical excellence. Encore is one of the very few professional theatre companies for people with disabilities in the United States!
Encore actively promotes an environment where each individual's talents, skills and abilities can be fostered and developed to reach their goal of having a career as a performing artist.
Our History
Financially seeded by REM Wisconsin, Inc, a company that provides comprehensive and innovative services for people with disabilities, and artistically seeded by Kelsy Schoenhaar, a seasoned professional musician, playwright and human services manager, Encore opened its doors on September 6th, 2000. Only weeks later on October 14th, Encore premiered it's first production, "Not Stubborn... Not Strong-Willed" at the world-class Monona Terrace convention center to an uproarious standing ovation. It's been full steam ahead ever since. The talented Encore actors have traveled all over the state of Wisconsin and beyond performing any one of Encore's 13 original works, including four full-scale plays.
