Educational Outreach
The Program
The Emerson Theater Collaborative is looking for schools to join us using the exciting learning tool of live theater to engage your students and make literature and history come to life. Southeastern Connecticut's newest professional theater now offers quality educational programming at a reasonable and affordable rate.
Since our inception in April 2008, ETC has looked for new ways to connect with the community at large. In November 2008 we presented Introducing Mr. Charles Dickens, which was written and performed by the critically acclaimed actor Albert Cremin. To honor Black History Month and Women's History Month, ETC successfully produced Harriet2 (as in Tubman and Beecher Stowe) in March of 2009. An important part of our programming is making theater accessible to area schools, students and educators. You and your students can participate; by booking:
