Come along and learn how to talk to the animals! Follow nine and a half year old Tommy Stubbins as he meets everyone’s favorite animal doctor, John Dolittle and his friends Polynesia the Parrot, Chee Chee the Monkey, Jip the Dog, Gub Gub the Pig, and Dab Dab the Duck. Join them on the adventure of a lifetime as they travel from quiet Puddleby-on-the-Marsh to the bottom of the sea to meet The Great Glass Snail. This world premiere production will be a whirlwind of puppetry, music, and mirth created by Associate Artistic Director Ernie Nolan.

From our Associate Artistic Director, Ernie Nolan:
“Yet again ECTC will explore the art of puppetry in new and exciting ways. DOLITTLE promises to incorporate hand and marionette puppets in order to bring the animal world to life.”
