Eryn Lemmert

Eryn is a director, actor, dancer, and photographer who grew up in the heart of Northeastern Wisconsin. Surrounded by a city full of art, she has always gravitated towards using theatre to share her voice and use her art as a means of advocacy and understanding. For her, theatre is a medium to throw all passion into, one where Eryn is interested in expressing how people experience life and what it means to be human.

She is passionate about using her art to advocate for her beliefs and talk about issues that are personal to her and the people she cares about including women’s, queer and refugee rights. Art is Eryn’s world; she is always thrilled to share her work and explore sincere and necessary stories.

This semester, for UNCSA’s Director’s Festival, she will be directing an excerpt from David Harrower’s "Blackbird;" a story that illuminates the effects of child molestation and how the past can be ever-present and dominating in people’s lives.
