Meet The Team

Eliisa Gladwell
Founder/CEO
I’m the proud owner of BE Entertainment, where we bring magic, wonder, and unforgettable memories to children through princesses, superheroes, and other beloved characters. My journey into the world of character entertainment began in 2014, when I portrayed Cinderella at the Vista Theater. After that performance, I started receiving requests to appear at birthday parties, and my passion for creating magical experiences for families blossomed.
I’ve been involved in theater since I was 5 years old, participating in over 60 productions locally, acting, choreographing, and directing. I’ve had the pleasure of working with numerous youth organizations across the Upper Peninsula such as Negaunee High School Theater, Negaunee High School Cheerleading, Marquette Senior High School Cheerleading, Hancock High School Theater, and Houghton Gymnastics. In 2016, I was honored to be named Miss Upper Peninsula and ran for Miss Michigan.
Now settled in Marquette with my loving partner, Bryce, and my amazing son, Easton, I continue to pour my heart into the local theater community, sitting on the Board of Directors for both the Peninsula Arts Appreciation Council and Lake Superior Theater. When I’m not busy with my day job (Human Resources for UPHS Marquette), my family, theater, or BE Entertainment; I enjoy yoga, reading, and everything Harry Potter.
