Tula Tales

Join the Wetumpka Depot Players for the world premiere of Tula Tales, a heartwarming and imaginative new play that celebrates one of the Coosa River’s smallest—and most important—residents: the Tulotoma snail.

Commissioned especially for our Encore Players, this original production blends STEAM and arts education to bring environmental conservation to life through storytelling, music, and wonder.

Meet Liam, a curious 10-year-old with a remarkable gift—he can talk to animals. While exploring the banks of the Coosa River at Gold Star Park, he hears a tiny voice calling for help. It’s Tula, a Tulotoma snail who’s been separated from his family. What follows is an unforgettable journey filled with adventure, friendship, and lessons about the delicate ecosystem that surrounds us.

Perfect for families and young audiences, Tula Tales is a whimsical, meaningful celebration of nature, community, and the magic that can happen when we listen closely—even to a snail.

Over the River and Through the Woods

Every Sunday, Nick crosses the river to New Jersey and has dinner with both sets of his Italian-American grandparents. But Nick has dreams, and when he receives the perfect job offer from the west coast, he is determined to take it. His grandparents – Frank, Aida, Nunzio, and Emma – are just as determined that he stay put. Thus begins a series of shameless schemes and hilarious shenanigans that will have you roaring in your seat while reminding you of the wonderful zaniness that is family.
