Biography

Emma LaPlante

Emma (Emmy) LaPlante is a devoted actress and arts administrator. Her passion for creating a space for artistic expression has made her want to pursue her Bachelor of Science in Theatre Creation. She has had the opportunity to explore her other interests through her three minors in Entrepreneurship and Innovation, Leadership Studies, and Sociology. Coupled with her administrative passion she has never let her love of performing die out. She can be seen as Philomel in Polaroid Stories by Naomi Iizuka this spring in Muncie, Indiana. She will graduate as a member of the Ball State University class of 2023 and is thrilled to see where her interests and talents will take her in the upcoming years.
