Reviews

“Very impressive company” – Stratford-upon-Avon Theatre BlogSpot

“I have worked with Emma several times as a professional actor retained by her Company ELART Productions. She is an excellent director with a clear and specific vision of what she wants while, at the same time, allowing the actors the freedom to experiment and contribute fully to the creative process.” – Paul Slater, actor.

“I have hired Emma more than once and would have no hesitation to do so again. Emma and her team produce beautiful music, almost magical. They are professional, reliable, trustworthy and likeable. The quality of their acting is also outstanding.” – Mandy Holten, Custodian St John’s, Lancaster.

“Emma was an exceptional colleague during our post-graduate studies at Middlesex. Always cheerful, creative, and hardworking, she was an asset when we were to work in teams. Emma and I spent a winter together in Moscow, Russia, studying under masters at the National Academy of Dramatic Art. She directed excellent pieces, and I remember a particularly poignant performance and interpretation of scene she created and in which she acted.” – Irene Hodes MFA Theatre Directing
