Val Emmich News

My schedule is starting to get tighter and tighter as the school year comes to an end. As I wrap my classes, most of my focus is starting to turn more towards everything theatre to keep me going.

For the past few months, I have been working on a film adaptation of the novel. Before we started filming, I talked to Caroline Garret, who plays Tegan Everly in the film about the upcoming production and her character and the upcoming production.

As a senior in high school who is graduating this spring, my schedule is starting to get tighter and tighter as deadlines start to close faster. Even with everything quickly happening, it’s important to stay in the moment, keep your head up, and just keep going.

It’s time for the curtain to rise on 2026 and make my grand entrance into the new year. For me, 2026 is the year I’ve been looking forward to the most for a long time. So let’s reflect on the past, and jump into the future!

Theatrical licensor Music Theatre International (MTI) announced that the Tony®, Grammy® and Olivier Award-winning musical Dear Evan Hansen is now available for licensing

La versión cinematográfica del aclamado musical DEAR EVAN HANSEN llegará a las pantallas este año y aquí recopilamos todo lo que se sabe de ella hasta el momento.

The live film adaptation in my opinion is the thing us musical theatre geeks have been waiting for all of quarantine.

One of my favorite activities is reading books and what better time to do that then right now when we're all stuck at home? Unfortunately, there are many theatre related activities we cannot participate in right now but one of the best ways we can learn more about our crafts and read about others in our fields is by reading about them. There are hundreds of Broadway related books, script writing and acting guides, memoirs by our favorite stars, and more! I thought I would share some of my favorites with you all to hopefully get you all back in the mindsets of creating art and learning about those who you look up to.
