Anne & Emmett Tickets

Anne & Emmett is an award-winning one-act play that imagines an afterlife conversation between Anne Frank and Emmett Till. Written by Janet Langhart Cohen, with a musical score by Joshua Coyne and occasional narration, the production invites audiences to reflect on prejudice, resilience, and humanity. The project has been presented by multiple theatre companies and featured in humanities and outreach contexts, including NEH-related discussions and press from humanities centers.

While the project has traveled widely, promotional materials typically come through host theatres and local press pages, with recent performances continuing to bring the story to new audiences. Below you’ll find a concise biography of the creator and the performers, a brief discography-like overview of musical or vocal components, and the latest touring information. Secure your seats with us for the next Orlando showing and stay tuned for future engagements across the country.

Anne & Emmett is more than a play; it’s a conversation about the human impact of prejudice and the importance of bearing witness. The work’s premiere plans were interrupted in 2009 due to a tragic event at a museum, but the production has endured as a cornerstone of theatre-based humanities outreach. For venues and promoters, this piece offers a thoughtful programming option that pairs dramatic storytelling with civic education.
