EMILIA
UC College-Conservatory of Music Acting

Directed by Bridget Leak
What became of Emilia Bassano, poet and contemporary of William Shakespeare? Was she his “Dark Lady” of the sonnets? What does it mean to be reduced to a footnote in a man’s story? In this bold reimagining, Emilia reaches across time to speak for women — mothers, lovers, thinkers, muses — who dare to be seen and heard on their own terms. Hilarious and heart-breaking, Emilia features an all-female cast portraying multiple Elizabethan characters.
