Free public performances will take place on Saturday, June 24 at Carl Schurz Park (Peter Pan Circle near 87th St) and Sunday, June 25 at bkONE’s Tom Kane Theatre (51 35th Street Bldg. 5, Brooklyn, off the D, N and R trains). A pre-show craft will begin at 1 pm with a 1:30 pm showtime. In line with Emit’s mission to make theatre accessible to the community, performances are free/by donation with a suggested donation of $15.
Waves of Wonder is an interactive play for young audiences that takes students on a journey to help save their town’s waterfront from harmful development. Along the way, they encounter mythical creatures who teach them about the importance of conservation and community. Devised by the company, it features traditional Afro-Caribbean, Nigerian, Chinese, Scottish, and Gullah mythology.
Both show locations are ADA-accessible. Additional accessibility accommodations will include handheld fans, shade umbrellas, fidget spinners, noise-canceling headphones, and ice packs. Crafted for ages 3-8. For more accessibility information or requests, please email info@emittheatre.org
