Emma Jones

Notes

Emma Jones is a Sydney-based actress and voice artist with a passion for bringing flesh and blood to storytelling. Although Emma is a multiplatform actress enjoying film, TV and voiceover, she is particularly drawn to the theatre and its exposed immediacy — she loves the energetic interaction between the stage and the audience. In 2022, Emma thrilled audiences and critics alike with her performance as Dr Emma Brookner in State Theatre of South Australia’s acclaimed production of Larry Kramer’s The Normal Heart – Limelight magazine said “Jones is absolutely glorious”, The Adelaide Advertiser said “A special shout out to Emma Jones as the dangerously determined Dr Brookner” and Heckler called her performance “stand-out”. 2021, Emma completed filming for the STAN series “Joe Vs Carole” starring Saturday Night Live’s Kate McKinnon, as well as a new promotional campaign for “Red Cross”. A quick look at Emma’s skills reveals an intimidatingly command of American and European accents and dialects. Meanwhile, she keeps herself very busy on pursuits ranging from Pilates to indoor skydiving to trivia nights and skiing. Emma is a childhood cancer survivor which resulted in the amputation of her left leg, but this does not deter her on stage or on screen. She sees her disability as a pathway for deeper insight into the human condition.
