Hi there! My name is Madison Embrey.
I am currently touring North America with the arena stunt show, Jurassic World Live Tour, playing the show’s lead heroine, Dr. Kate Walker and Performance Captain.. I was part of the show’s original build in 2019 and have been performing since its post pandemic remount in July of 2022. Along with fighting and acting in the show, I was hired to do the voiceover for my character, as well. I am our cast’s Performance Captain, which means I put the show lineup together, help maintain the storytelling integrity of the performers, assist the Performance Director in their array of needs, and keep a pulse on the Spirit of the cast. I have been trained under our amazing Performance Director and have stepped in as PD for multiple performances when I’m swung out of the show. Head to www.jurassicworldlivetour.com for more info about the show and to see our tour schedule!
In August 2023, I returned to the esteemed Jacob’s Pillow to perform in honor of my late mentor Chet Walker. I was part of Alyssa Epstein’s restaging of Fosse’s iconic “Dancin Man” with permission from the Fosse Legacy Estate, and I performed a trio that Chet choreographed on me during my time at Jacob’s Pillow in 2017. It was surreal to return to The Pillow and have the chance to perform on the Inside Out stage as a professional & working artist. To be performing in a stunt show one weekend and dancing at Jacob’s Pillow in my Laducas the next, truly felt like my dreams playing out right in front of my eyes.
From February 2022 - June 2022, I did an amazing five month contract with Virgin Voyages as Dance Captain for the show build of “It’s a Ship Show!” on the Valiant Lady. I LOVED my experience and grew as a performer and leader during my time onboard. Show builds are where I thrive, and I was proud to be part of this one!
Follow along on my Instagram for the joy, lessons, and fun I’m finding in my daily life and on the job! That is truly the place to see what I am up to! My handle is @madisonembrey or head to this link: Instagram
