Two TCS budding stage performers played roles in The Orlando Repertory Theatre's The Little Mermaid Jr. Eighth grade student, Emma Ausen, played Ursula and 4th grade student, Ashlyn MacNichol, played Ocean and was in the Ensemble. The shared experience created a lasting friendship between the two girls that continues at school. Ashlyn now says that Emma is the big sister that she never had. Both girls plan to audition for The Orlando Repertory's upcoming production of Honk Jr. Congratulations to Emma and Ashlyn for their dedication to the arts.
