​​​​Emily Ahrens (she/her/hers) is an actor and singer based in Chicago. (And willing to travel!)
Emily's training includes a B.A. in Musical Theatre from the University of Wisconsin - Green Bay, the Open Jar Institute (NY - Jeff Whiting), the Growing Studio (NY), and The Actor's Studio (Chicago). She has recently returned from a 6 month contract across Europe, performing with Disney Cruise Line.
Emily's experience with developmental pieces includes work with New York playwright Robin Rice in Rice's latest production of PLAY NICE! and with Tony and Pulitzer prize nominated playwright, Lee Blessing, during his latest production of THE HOURGLASS PROJECT. 
Emily's recent favorite credits include: Little Red Riding Hood in INTO THE WOODS, Witch 1 in MACBETH (Thunder Bay Theatre), Belle in BEAUTY AND THE BEAST (Duluth Playhouse), Luisa in THE FANTASTICKS (Festival Theatre). 

During the pandemic, Emily found an unexpected love of producing and directing work with her friends on several devised concerts, where she collaborated to create virtual performances for the general public. She plans to continue collaborations like these, in a non-virtual format, as the industry rebounds. For inquiries, you can contact Emily here.
Emily's passions outside of her work as an artist include traveling (she is hoping to return to Scotland within the year), hiking/kayaking/paddle boarding, training for marathons, creating flower arrangements, bragging about Midwestern autumns, the Green Bay Packers, living out her bucket list, and all things Disney.
