Emerald Coast Theatre Company Presents You and Me Under the Sea Education Theatre Programming PerformanceEmerald Coast Theatre Company Presents You and Me Under the Sea Education Theatre Programming Performance

Emerald Coast Theatre Company is proud to present You and Me Under the Sea Saturday, April 1 and April 8, 2023 at 9.30 a.m. (Friday school field trip performances are sold out). This interactive live show is performed with the youngest of audience members in mind (6 months to 5 years old). Flap your flippers and swish your tail as you float along the waves and explore underwater worlds! You might meet a curious sea turtle or a mischievous dolphin as you sing and clap along to the rhythm of the clam shells keeping the beat. Let your imagination run free and your fins flap along as we take you under the sea! A new work created just for you by our Junior Company teen players. A collaboration written by Phillip Padgett and the Junior Company Players.

“Our Theatre for the Very Young is very special in two ways. One way is to watch the eyes of little ones from 6 months old to five years old light up with the live action and colorful nature of the shows. It is a pretty great experience. Add to that the fact that our Jr Company High School Players wrote and collaborated with ECTC staff to create the show is pretty great too. It’s a very creative experience for both the audience and the actors,” said ECTC co-founder Nathanael Fisher.
