Emily Collins
Emily is a homeschool student now in the eighth grade. She enjoys reading, swimming, doting on her littlest sister, and baking yummy treats. She enjoys expressing herself through music. Her experience with musical/dramatic roles began as a participant in children's choir musicals at church. In recent years she has been cultivating her skills by taking piano lessons and voice lessons, as well as teaching herself to play the ukulele. In Emily’s first GFT production in 2018, she played Munchkin #1 in The Wizard of Oz. The next year, she was the Sausage Curl Girl, Chip's Understudy, and a Plate in GFT's Beauty and the Beast. When GFT had plans to bring the Broadway version of Annie to the stage this year, Emily was so honored to be cast as Annie, but now that the pandemic has changed so many plans, she is delighted to be involved in this original parody show, which she hopes will bring joy and entertainment to the GFT audience during these extraordinary times!
