carried virtually solo by Rachel’s performance. “It’s been such a great little treasure in my life, totally unexpected,” she says. “It was a real blessing and I learned so much. When it played in New York last year, I had to go — I mean, how many times are you going to see yourself on the big screen?” A screening of “Emma’s Fine” in Fort Myers is hopeful in 2016. But while these two artists are able to succeed in multi-media settings, it’s really theatre that stirs their passions. “Theatre is free and dynamic and exciting and beautiful,” Rachel states. “It’s the thrill of like anything could happen any night, and every night is different. You’re creating something with
living, breathing people — including the audience. That’s so different from the vacuum of the sound stage.” { } Rachel + Brendan www.RachelBurttram.com www.BrendanPowers.com
