"Ekklesia does soulful theater: theater that moves, that delights, that touches hearts, that uplifts. In addition to presenting thoughtful and well executed theater, the company also invests in its community, supporting neighbors in need and making the arts accessible to everyone!"
"The story truly moved us. It was such a wonderful afternoon, deeply enjoyable and incredibly affordable. We had such a great experience with Ekklesia Theatre that we're already planning to come back again this weekend! Thank you!"
"The superb acting and directing, the compelling subject matter; this is the kind of black box theatre that makes you think. We need more good theatre like this in Vancouver. Bravo!"
“I'll be brutally honest: while we are always game to support local theatrical productions, anytime we see a show put on by a "faith-based" outfit, the quality usually isn't that great. And even if the talent is good, the subject matter and choice of scripts is typically cheesy, watered-down and made so inoffensive that shows are often painful to watch. Such was my trepidation when I heard about this show. I've never been so glad to be wrong. For one thing, the two actors were brilliant - some of the best work I've seen in community theater. The connection between the two principals was electric. A pianist was stationed on the edge of the stage and everything else was focused center stage and dialogue-driven by the two actors. Issues that came up in the play included murder, genocide, and grief. Doesn't really sound like the kind of material for a "Christian" theater company, does it? In short: Ekklesia Theatre is producing real art. This is top-notch stuff. Go see it.”
"You did this weird, funny, and intense little Sam Shepard piece justice!"
“We really enjoyed the show! It was full of poignant scenes, lots of laughter, and some very talented folks! We love community theater and are looking forward to your next production.”
“It was SO FUNNY! But I didn't expect to also get so choked up during some of the scenes. It was so good!”
"This Scrooge play is fresh, funny, local jokes, well acted, articulate... this is great!!'
"Took the family to the show last night. Not sure what I was expecting but it was absolutely amazing. So much fun, comedy was on point. Loved the Couve twist on an old classic. Will definitely be going back time after time. Bravo!!!!!"
