Emma Johnston
The Earthquake in Chile (2010)
Emma Johnston was a Free Theatre ensemble member from 2004 - 2019, performing in over fifteen of the company's productions and co-ordinating the Free Theatre Education Programme. A classically trained singer, she developed a practice that explores experimental voice in theatre. This led to her MA and then PhD theses, which explore her work in the context of experimental voice in avant-garde performance. Emma has also worked as a singer and actor with Silencio Ensemble, the Christchurch Symphony, and Corrupt Productions, and has premiered vocal works by composers Chris Reddington and Gao Ping. Alongside her ongoing Free Theatre work, she enjoys collaborating with artists such as Reuben Derrick and Roy Montgomery on a diversity of projects.
