Emily Hehl is a theater director and musician. Her musical theater blurs the lines of concert and opera and gives the collective choir and orchestra equal footing with solo parts. Her productions create portraits strongly influenced by movement and search for the fragility and ambiguity of the singing body. Emily's directorial work focuses on the sensual and physical dimensions of musical theater, and her direction expresses itself through the body of the performer and the influence that the voice or instrument exerts on it.
