About this event

The Emerald Coast Theatre Company brings the magic of the holiday season to the stage with their production of Miss Bennet: Christmas at Pemberley, running December 12 through 22, 2026, with performances at 7:30 PM nightly. This charming and witty play, set during a Christmas house party at an English country estate, follows the sharp-minded Mary Bennet as she navigates family, romance, and her own brilliant ambitions — a seasonal tale filled with warmth, humor, and heart.

ECTC's intimate theater at 560 Grand Boulevard in Miramar Beach creates an immersive atmosphere perfectly suited to this story.

Plan for a pre-show dinner at one of the nearby Grand Boulevard restaurants, then settle in for a night of Regency romance and holiday cheer.
