Emma
A MUSICAL ROMANCE FOR THE HOLIDAYS
Music, lyrics, & book by Paul Gordon
Adapted from the novel by Jane Austen
Directed by Robert Kelley
Reprising TheatreWorks’ World Premiere
TheatreWorks' beloved musical hit makes a triumphant return for the holidays, featuring one of Jane Austen’s most delightful heroines, an effervescent ingénue whose matchmaking mischief inevitably misfires. Obsessed with romance, but clueless about her own feelings, Emma navigates the course of true love with a generous heart and an indomitable spirit. A masterpiece brought to joyous life, this funny, irresistible revival features a glorious score by the Tony Award-nominated composer of Jane Eyre and Daddy Long Legs.
“ Everything a musical should be.”
