1. Some acccomplishments of the ensemble theater are, the show "Sounds So Good...Makes You Wanna Holler. Also, Ms. Taylor started the Black Ensemble Theater with a loan of just $1,200. So a conclusion I would make is in conclusion, the black ensemble theater is a cool place to watch shows and is a great famous place . (From the book.)

Samantha,
I have seen similar comments from you throughout this blog post. Be careful, please... it is always tough to determine what others are thinking when they write. It may just be that Charles is thinking that the theater becoming a million dollar company is a great success. Instead of stating what responders have not done, ask them clarifying questions like this: "Charles, what conclusion can you draw from the accomplishments you listed? I believe this theater has become very successful based on the examples you provided of their accomplishments."

I think an accomplishment of the black ensemble theater is they keep spirits up even after the show. A second accomplishment might be the crowd sometimes is part of the show too. A last accomplishment is that they get real actors to do shows.

Some of the things that the Black Ensemble Theater accomplished are that it brought a lot of people together. It also raised money for the theater so it can continue by having all the show tickets sold out. It also shows who black people really are inside. It entertains people a lot also when they perform their plays. It also got the founder and creator a trophy for making such a good theater.

The black Ensemble theater accomplished getting people and the backstage workers to sigh up to be in the plays and songs. They also accomplished just getting the plays to be on stage for example, sounds so good make you wanna holler, and the cast from the other Cinderella. The black Emsemble theater started running out of tickets for other people to see the plays to!

I listed a few conclusions on what the theater accomplished. One of the conclusions is that the theater became a big success. How it became a success is by having movie tickets running out. Another one is that the plays have gotten people all around to come together. Ms.Taylor who runs the black Ensemble Theater has gotten many awards for her plays. One other reason for this success is by having many music artists acting in her plays. The music artists are Billie Holiday, Sammy Davis.Jr and a few others.

I think some of the accomplishments of the Black Ensemble Theater would be how they have had so many wonderful shows. They had people from around the world coming to their shows. They work very well together. When they have problems they always work them out. They do not usually argue,but sometimes they do. It said in the book that the theater makes millions of money.

In my conclusion some accomplishments the Black Ensemble Theater had was, just being able to put on the plays there is good, having amazing performers there like from the past they had Aretha Franklin, and from the future John Legend.Another accomplishment they had was keeping other peoples spirit up and joyful, and the last one that I'm writing is that they can teach other kids to do this at home if they want or the kids can make their own that they want to do.
