EMILY CHASE
Current Projects

According to the Chorus
"Director Emily Chase makes fantastic use of her space, considering that at times there are nine or ten performers on the stage... moving her actors almost nonstop while never distracting from the forward movement of the story. The pathos in the script is realized in breezy, colorful ways with a streak of melancholy marbled throughout."
"Wow! As deliciously entertaining an evening as anyone could wish for, directed by Emily Chase with attention to both character and detail."
"There are rivals and jealousy and spite, wringing hands and wrung necks, joyful reunions and a depth of being known... but under it all, there is always love. Hard-fought love of course, in this gorgeously funny, sad, poignant, phenomenally acted and fabulously directed play. Bravo, Emily Chase!"
