Wheresmyvoice,
As far as I know, Emerson does not have a senior showcase. However, what has been done more and more frequently as time goes on is for students to create their own showcases. While this is a lot different, it is entirely student run. There is a school full of stage managers, directors, lighting designers and costume designers, so they all collaborate and create their own. Sometimes more than one are done, but the Emerson group is usually very close by senior year, so they tend to work together, depending on the amount of interest.
It is also considered impressive to the audience members (whether they be agents or simply parents and friends) that the students put it all together themselves.
However, many have complained at the lack of a permanent showcase, mainly because of the connections and options it can give students for their future.
The choice comes down to whether or not you love the school enough to give that up or if a Senior Showcase is important to you enough that you just can't go there.
Good luck where ever you choose to go!
