Molly Emmerson
Molly has been singing since a young age and has had an array of training, mainly specialising in musical theatre. She is at her happiest when belting out songs by the greatest divas such as Whitney Houston and Diana Ross.
​
She has been part of many theatre companies and still enjoys regularly performing in shows. Most recently she has played Rusty in Footloose, The Dragon in Shrek, Hodel in Fiddler on the Roof and Sister Mary Robert in Sister Act.
She has been given many opportunities to perform at incredible events and venues over the years, such as The Diamond Jubilee tour, when Her Majesty the Queen visited Exeter; The Great Hall at Exeter University; Her Majesty’s Theatre, London, GSA Drama School, weddings and many more.
​
It was through theatre that Molly met Alfie and she has been mesmerised by his musical talent ever since. Molly feels privileged to not only get to continue to work with an extremely talented musician but someone she feels lucky enough to call a friend.
​
Molly looks forward to entertaining you and your guests and helping create special moments for memories that will last a lifetime.
