The Exodus Ensemble creates incomparable immersive experiences that redefine, reimagine and revolutionize how audiences encounter theatre.

Exodus experiences are a portal to bingeable, edgy immersive events that transform audiences, bending their minds, and spitting them out feeling deeply alive and connected.

Through an innovative collaborative process, the ensemble fuses classic texts with cinematic penchants to create contemporary productions that shatter expectations —  the ultimate antidote to the affliction of boredom.

The Origin Story 

The Exodus Ensemble comprises 13 members from Los Angeles, Chicago, NYC, Salt Lake City, and Atlanta who joined forces and moved to Santa Fe in 2020 to create the most exciting theatre company they could dream up.

Although they hail from coast to coast, The Exodus Ensemble met in Chicago as students at The Theatre School at DePaul University. After spending years collaborating at the conservatory, these artists graduated and set off on exciting careers, working at major theatres around the world and booking television contracts with Netflix, AMC, Quibi, NBC and more.

Within days of March 12th, 2020, the industry went dark. Theatres closed and production came to a halt on film sets and television studios. Overnight, years of creative contracts evaporated. When summer arrived and covid showed no signs of stopping, 8 DePaul grads got in touch, joined forces and moved to Santa Fe in September of 2020 and got to work on a repertoire of original, wild and immersive theatrical productions.

For the rest of 2020, The Exodus Ensemble spent three months working together as a quaran-team, using their bedrooms, kitchens, and bathrooms as rehearsal spaces and developed a wholly original interpretation of Chekhov’s 19th-century Russian drama, IVANOV.

Since IVANOV, the ensemble has created four more original experiences — BATHSHEBA, JAYSON, ZERO, and DEATHCOOKIE — and will be premiering their sixth project — HAMLET — this Spring.
