Emma Svitil

Emma Svitil (AEA) is a multifaceted artist, originally from Atlanta, Georgia, and currently based in New York City. She graduated from NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts in 2022 with a B.F.A. in Drama from the New Studio on Broadway, focusing on musical theatre, and double majoring in French. In Fall of 2024 she received her M.F.A. in Acting from the Old Globe/University of San Diego Shiley Graduate Theatre Program.

She is a dedicated singer and musician, playing five instruments. Emma is grateful to have spent the last two years deepening her love for Shakespeare and discovering new passions: the thrill of understudying, first-time directing, and the joy of incorporating her varied interests into her art, as in creating her one-woman show Space Babe, a love letter to “Star Trek.”

Emma is a proud nerd, never ashamed of her excitement when she gets to do what she loves: be a collaborative artist who tells living, breathing stories. She also loves her daily New York Times crossword puzzles.
