Emma Powell - Sue Emma's other creation, Busting Out! was a hit at the Melbourne International Comedy Festival and continues to play to sell out crowds all over Australia and New Zealand AND THE UK. Busting Out! will debut in Los Angeles later in 2011. Emma’s first performance was at the age of three when she appeared on US television with Ronald McDonald. School musicals were the natural progression from an Oompa Loompa at age 12 in The Wizard of Oz to Rosie in Bye Bye Birdie at sweet sixteen. As a grown up, the stage continued to beckon and she gave up a career in Public Relations to travel around Australia in The Pirates of Penzance. Emma then landed a spot in the Cameron Mackintosh world-wide sensation Les Miserables, touring to Singapore, Hong Kong, Korea and Cape Town. On her return, Emma participated in a workshop of an exciting original Australian musical, Crusade. She was then fortunate and thrilled, to be cast in the title role of Anthony Crowley’s original production, The Journey Girl, as Samantha. Emma would like to thank her sister, Katrine, for her support during the early development stages of Dumped! |
