Full Theatrical Production; or Intimate Interactive (w/minimal set up needs)
Emily Dickinson takes us on a delirious romp through her life and times. Wit, Wonder & Wisdom are the order of the day in this inspiring biographical portrait based on the letters, life stories and poems of Emily Dickinson!
The audience finds itself in the midst of life-changing events and relationships as Emily defies the conventions of her time – and creates poetry for the ages. At times, Emily steps out of the play, calls out for ideas from the audience, weaves them into the fabric of the piece, short poems are created on the spot --– and now, the possibilities are limitless!
“It was a whopping success!”

Emily Dickinson invites you for tea, secrets, eccentricities and passion! As she says: “Every town must have its local character, and that’s what I am!”
Social restrictions are thrown to the wind and surprises come at every turn. With a startlingly resonant voice, with heart and humor, her writing and values transcend fashion for timelessness. It’s a deliriously private world – and Emily Dickinson is our host!
“The audience is held in the palm of her hands and she keeps them spellbound.”
