ETI was established in 1999, by the Los Angeles based
professional theatre company, BAMN Ensemble for the purpose of providing
quality, specialized programs to corporate as well as educational clients.
Examples of our many programs include Productions, Workshops, Staff
Development, After-School Programs, Web Development Workshops for Youth and
Adults, and Talent Management. All of our educational projects are fully
customizable, and designed within the framework of the National Educational
Standards. ETI is also home to BAMN-BAMN Youth Ensemble, Los Angeles’
premiere theatrical ensemble primarily for young entertainment
professionals.
ETI is a unique blend of some of the most experienced and
talented professionals in the arts community. Our varied membership
consists of professional actors, experienced educators, facilitators,
artists, dancers, musicians, and visual artists. ETI’s customized
staff development provides educators with the chance to learn and practice
theatre techniques, which can then be utilized to teach their entire
curriculum.
Advancing Art Education
ETI exposes
youth and educators to the arts by incorporating visual, theatrical, dance
and musical activities into the curriculum. Each program is individualized
for your group, and can be based on literature, such as Open Court stories,
or any subject matter. Educational materials, such as Study Guides,
provided in advance, provide background information on the artists and the
art form, and suggest ways to extend the arts experience into the
classroom, complete with tie-ins to academic standards.
