WALLED LAKE, Mich.–The Jewish Ensemble Theatre this week opens its 30th season in a new performing space in Walled Lake.

After 29 seasons at The Jewish Community Center campus in West Bloomfield, the landlord decided it wanted the theater space for its growing high school.

Onward. Artistic Director Chris Bremer sat down with EncoreMichigan editor David Kiley to discuss the move, the space, the play, theater in an age of national division, and what’s next.
