Emily Conbere


Emily Conbere’s work has been seen at the Daryl Roth II, Atlantic Theatre (24 Hour Plays), HERE Space, the Manhattan Theatre Source, Pantheon Theatre, Present Company Theatorium and Shapiro Theatre. In Minneapolis, her plays have been produced at the Loring Playhouse, the Red Eye Theatre (best attended Fringe musical of 1998) and Bryant Lake Bowl Theatre (City Pages “A” List). Emily’s comic screenplay Insecurity Hurts was read in May, 2003, at the Tribeca Film Center starring Armando Riesco. Her play The Scholar recently had a reading at the Daryl Roth Theatre, starring Arliss Howard, MaryAnn Plunkett and T.R. Knight, directed by Eduardo Machado. In 2001, Emily’s interest in international collaboration led her to co-produce Stage One: Playwright’s Perspective, a two- week festival at the Battersea Arts Center in London which brought together theatre practitioners from London and New York (participants included Theatre de Complicite, Stephen Belber, Kelly Stuart, Simon Russell Beale and Mel Kenyon). She has since been invited by Dah Teatar to participate with them in Belgrade. Playwright and Director Santiago Garcia has invited her to translate his company’s theatrical archives for publication, and to collaborate with his company La Candelaria in Colombia.
