ShoeString Players is an inclusive performing arts school and theatre company in Erie, founded in 2024, offering classes for all ages and skill levels along with production classes that take students through building a full theatrical production from start to finish. Its summer programs have staged shows including The Aristocats Kids and Willy Wonka Jr., with students going through auditions and rehearsals while receiving acting and voice instruction pitched at their level. The company states a mission of including people with special needs in the performing arts, and helps families organise carpools.
