EMU TYA TOUR Ronnie And Scales
PLAY SYNOPSIS
Participants will meet Ronnie, who has invited them over to her backyard to swim in her big, blue pool. Along with her pet fish, Scales, and stuffed octopus, Octet, Ronnie enlists the help of the audience to prepare to go swimming. Right when she’s ready, Grandma informs her that it’s much too cold to swim— it’s autumn! Encouraged to use her imagination instead, Ronnie and Scales lead the participants on an exploration of the ocean, an island full of giant desserts, and the ways that imagination can make an ordinary day magical.

Welcome Song.MOVNever Ever.MOVRonnie and Scales’ Magnificent Tale is a work of sensory theater. There are a lot of similarities to the theatrical productions you might be familiar with! We have a linear storyline, the production features a set, props, and costumes, and we have original musical numbers. However, Ronnie and Scales features many opportunities for students to explore the set, interact with the actors, and become fully immersed in the adventure.
The story was written through a devised process, meaning it was created with the director and ensemble in the rehearsal room. Through this process, Ronnie and Scales is specifically tailored to neurodivergent individuals and people with special needs— communities that were in mind throughout every step of creation!

Edward Tulane is an expensive toy rabbit made of china. He is loved by a little girl named Abilene, but Edward doesn’t care. He is vain and self-centered. He has no interest in anyone other than himself. On an ocean voyage, Edward is accidentally thrown overboard and sinks to the bottom of the sea. So begins his journey—a journey over which he has no control, for he is a toy rabbit. He can neither move nor speak. As years pass by, Edward meets many different people in many different situations: an older grieving couple who find comfort in Edward’s presence, a hobo and his dog who introduce Edward to a whole community of homeless wanderers, a farmer in need of a scarecrow, a sad little boy and his very ill sister, and finally a doll mender and an old doll who teach Edward an invaluable lesson. Through this miraculous journey, Edward learns what it is to love, what it is to lose that love, and how to find the courage to love again. Based on Kate DiCamillo’s beautiful novel of the same name, the play is a theatrical tour de force for a small ensemble of actors and musicians. ~ Source Dramatic Publishing
