One of Jane Austen’s most delightful heroines, Emma is an effervescent ingénue whose matchmaking mischief inevitably misfires. Obsessed with romance, but clueless about her own feelings, she must navigate the course of true love with a generous heart as her only guide. A 19th century masterpiece brought to joyous life, this sumptuous world premiere mixes brilliant dialogue and a tuneful score in a funny and fulfilling chamber musical.
