Emma Frankland is an award-winning performance and theatre artist working in the UK and internationally. In London, England she has been a core member of Shakespeare’s Globe’s ‘Read Not Dead’ project, and her work on the ‘None of Us is Yet a Robot’ project explores gender, trans identity and the politics of transition.
