Here's what he has to say about the process thus far:

I'm thoroughly enjoying being part of the EmilyAnn family. Everyone has been very welcoming. There is nothing better than bringing Shakespeare to life and made all the more fun when you are surrounded by such wonderful people. It doesn't get any better than this.

Meet Luke Jenkins, playing Provost for our production of Measure for Measure. We pretty much think he's a superstar! 

"This is my second time working with the EmilyAnn Theatre; last spring I worked as the assistant director on the production of To Kill a Mockingbird directed by the late Jeremy Torres. This is also my first time performing in a Shakespeare show, and I’m excited to be performing with the EmilyAnn. it is an incredibly inspiring place that brings so much theatre to a community. Working with the EmilyAnn last spring really built a special place in my heart for community theater and this experience has been no different. Shakespeare is so rich with themes and, in this production especially, moral complexity that it incredibly fun to bring to life. I’m very excited to share all the discoveries we have made during the process with the community."
