REVIEWS 

"Emily was so beyond helpful in getting my creative ideas in order. I came to her with so many ideas but not way to organize them. I left feeling refreshed and ready to keep working towards my goals" - Abigial Jesse, Artist

"Director Emily Faith utilizes every inch of the venue, including the main aisle, the back windows of the house and several front row chairs, to stage her energetic and sweetly comic production" - TheatreJones

"And Mein Gott!  Emily Faith as The Visitor. ..Faith shakes up the play as The Visitor” with both a tender and burning presence." - TheatreJones

"Emily Faith scores some of the evening’s best lines, but she also captures her character’s adolescent brand of anger and frustration."
-The Tennessean, 100 Saints You Should Know

"Faith played this character with an understatement that allowed her text to live. ..Faith showed this visible longing in her own search for truth." - The Column 
"When stepping back in to lead a Shakespeare workshop for the first time in over a year, I thought a walk through for my workshop plans would be a good idea. Unscripted Healing gave me much more than that. Emily was able to help my own insecurity and fear of “doing a bad job” or “saying the wrong thing” get out of the way so that I could be fully present with the students in the classroom. She did it with patience and empathy and I can’t recommend her enough—You and your students deserve it." - Taylor Harris, Actor.
