There’s no tap dancing around it, Emerald Coast Theatre Company’s 2022 Fall Educational Theatre programs offer something for everyone including both children and adults.
“There couldn’t be a time where self-expression through the performing arts is more essential for our children,” said ECTC co-founder and producing artistic director Nathanael Fisher. “Many of the schools in our community cannot offer the theater arts and so we are thrilled to be able to supplement with our professional education programs, and this year we have even more for adults, too.”
ECTC continues its popular Educational Theatre Program with creative and engaging offerings designed especially for young thespians from pre-school to high school. The full schedule of class dates and times along with and registration rate information can be found at www.EmeraldCoastTheatre.org.
All programs are offered at Emerald Coast Theatre Company’s (ECTC) performance space located at 560 Grand Boulevard in Grand Boulevard Town Center in Miramar Beach unless noted otherwise. Most classes begin the week of August 13.

The ECTC Jr. Company is an opportunity for high school students in 9th-12th grade to continue their theatrical education. Members of the company have the opportunity to audition for several performance opportunities at ECTC as well as time to work on their individual pieces to be featured in a showcase. Students have exclusive masterclasses with the professional actors who come to work at ECTC. There are also opportunities for practical experience in technical theatre for all interested students. Florida Theatre Conference audition package workshops will be included as well. Our goal is to provide students with the advanced opportunities and educational training they need to succeed in whatever they do.
This is a year-long commitment. Production audition opportunities include:
A LIVE Radio Play, A Charlie Brown Christmas, The Best Christmas Pageant Ever: the Musical, You and Me Under the Sea (an original production written and performed by Jr. Company members), Clue On Stage, The Sound of Music.
(ECTC staff will cast Jr. Company members in the shows, every Jr. Company member will not be in every production)
