Emily Bice is a Brooklyn-based writer born in Michigan, but with family in Canada - so on paper she’s the nicest person you’ll ever meet. Emily graduated from The University of Michigan’s School of Music, Theatre, and Dance. She has worked as an olive oil farmer, press correspondent at Cannes, and in television, but her favorite job is writer.
Emily focuses on telling female-driven stories that spark change beyond the page, often exploring how we navigate love and life in the 21st century. These themes have taken her to a fishmonger, inspired meditations on dating, and even led to rollerblading a marathon. She’s not precious about form; she’s down to clown whether it’s a play, a podcast, an essay, or even a freestyle rap.
Her written work can be found on her Substack, 129 Ways to Get a Life. As a playwright, her credits include before the flood (The Chain Theatre, NYC), Purgatory (developmental workshop, Ann Arbor, MI), See You In A Few (one act, the thing theatre company, Zoom). In television, she has contributed to The 100, The Boys, One Day at a Time, and With Love.
