“...we are thrown back to 1965, in which the heartbreakingly fresh-faced Emma Geer plays [Mary Page Marlowe] at 19.”
“Alissa — smart, lovely and good-natured... played by the especially compelling Emma Geer ”
“Emma Geer is luminous as Ophelia. She portrays both her sadness and her madness authentically. And she says as much with her eyes as she does with her words.”
“I make special mention of young Emma Geer, a 2016 graduate of the North Carolina School of the Arts, who brings light and love to the admirable Beatrice, who manages to get through to Jeremy Beck’s “Alan Jeffcote” deliciously but firmly enough to help him grow up. The entire cast is first-rate, but Ms. Geer particularly caught my eye. All in all, this production is a big feather in the cap of the Mint Theater.”
“Emma Geer, a natural performer in an otherwise unforgiving style.”
“The role of Susan, played with emotional and psychological insight by Emma Geer, has been expanded in this new adaptation, to give more significance and greater three-dimensionality to the woman. ”
“Geer’s Ophelia was certainly not simplistic. She was bright and quick-witted and loving, which makes her descent into madness the worst tragedy of the play.”
“As an audience member, you’ll find yourself getting acquainted quickly with the O’Shea family as their oldest daughter Linda, played perfectly by Actress Emma Geer, introduces us to her Irish Catholic family.”
“....The actors playing the two main characters, Emma Geer as Annie Scott and Donald Corren as Thomas Scott, give very fine performances. Natural and believable, they are both magnetic presences on stage and give energy and interest to whatever scene they are in. ”
“ In her featured role as Scott’s daughter Annie, the glowing Emma Geer, too, displays a compelling three-dimensionality and transition of moods, bringing to life the young woman’s dissatisfaction, dreams, disappointment, and acceptance.”
“Fittingly, the two standouts are Matthew Brown and the group’s only female friend, Emma Geer, as Alissa. Brown’s film honestly feels tailor made for the pair, who can evoke the story’s ideas without even talking to each other – much like in real life, things are being said when they aren’t, and it’s one of the film’s greatest assets.”
“Emma Geer, as Lucy, shows the greatest range as she takes her character from a myriad of emotions, whether she is in her own mind or under the control of the feared Count. She does an impressive job flipping from one world to another throughout the play.”
“...pleas for his daughter Lucy, played with a beautiful sensitivity by Emma Geer.”
