Emerson is totally freaking out! It's his first night working at the first - ever - GAY BAR to officially open in his small college town just south of Austin, Texas. Follow him along as he boldly serves up a gripping account bound to leave even the most cynical of spectators agog.

Emerging Artists Theatre's Spark Theatre Festival NYC (formerly the New Works Series) began in 2006 and focuses on new works, new talents, and new voices. The bi-annual festival that runs in the Fall and Spring, showcases 50+ new dance pieces, plays, solo-shows, cabaret, and musicals.
