Emily Keys

Performance maker Actor Theatre Director

My name is Emily Keys (She/Her), and I am an 18 year old emerging artist who is passionate about both physical theatre and creating work that people feel they can identity with. I come from performance background working with representational and abstract text. I find the range of styles excites me and is something I want to explore more throughout my creative journey.
