Jane
Austen's novel comes to life
in this delightful musical comedy!
In the town of Highbury, Emma Woodhouse sets about
matchmaking her protégé to the town's vicar, but the scheme backfires. Mistaken notions of who loves whom turn Emma’s world upside-down until she discovers
what she had long denied: Cupid's bow is pointed at herself, and love can be
found from an unexpected source.
"Lively, witty and
charming...Those familiar with Jane Austen's class novel Emma will readily
embrace Joel Alden's interpretation as a musical." - J Christensen, North Hollywood
Entertainment Today
"The upper-class Emma Woodhouse who conspires to wed off others (while
not sensing what they truly desire), translates beautifully...it was truly an
engaging evening of theater." - TalkBack - San Francisco, 2007
"Fast, Fresh and Fun." "The music resonate within long after
the curtain has drawn..." - Los Angeles Staged Reading Response cards
"Emma" winner of the [2005] Best Musical/Best Production Award, by
