Miramar Beach, FL — Emerald Coast Theatre Company (ECTC) announces its upcoming student production of Alice in Wonderland Jr., with performances scheduled November 5–15, 2025. Presented as part of ECTC’s Educational Theatre Program, the production will showcase students throughout Northwest Florida from second grade through high school both on ECTC’s main stage as well as at the Florida Chautauqua Theatre in Defuniak.

Based on the timeless Disney classic, Alice in Wonderland Jr. invites audiences to follow Alice down the rabbit hole into a whimsical world filled with unforgettable characters and lively music.
