History
Established in 2008.
The Emerson Theater Collaborative (ETC) was established on April 7, 2008, as a new professional theater company to serve Southeastern Connecticut with innovative and thought-provoking theatrical productions, and received its 501C3 status on July 24, 2009.
ETC's mission is to serve youth, under-represented communities and artists with an emphasis on diversity, by producing innovative and exhilarating theater in Southeastern Connecticut. ETC explores timely themes and issues through new, original works and modern theatrical classics. We develop and nurture both emerging and professional artists, and collaborate with the Emerson College network of alumni and students, and other local theater arts and educational institutions.
Our goals include reaching inner city youth through educational theatrical programming, to support our local communities by providing free admission to our performances to low-income families and donating profits to humanitarian causes.
