This year Academy Theatre, one of the two venues hosting this event, is also a subject! We could think of no better way to close out this series than to talk with Artistic Director Robert Drake, and the filmmaker of Beyond The Script, Dr. Arshely Emile.
The Academy Theatre is the longest running professional theatre in Georgia. Founded in 1956 by Frank Wittow, Academy has premiered over 400 new plays and continues its outreach work to people without a theatrical voice, incubates new theater companies, produces mainstage works, and remains a vital component of the Southeast’s theater community. Robert Drake is in his 14th season as the Academy Theatre’s Artistic Director and has been affiliated with the theatre since 2005.
Dr. Arshley Emile is an award winning documentary director and cinematographer. His love and passion for filmmaking was something he was aware of as early as 8 years old, but it was not until he embarked on his dissertation on racism in public schools, that he realized that his admiration for visual arts spanned well beyond the classroom. Today he is the CEO and co-founder of Timberhouse Films, which he heads with his wife Stephania.
