Jarrod Emick

Chris (1st USA National Tour, Broadway)

Jarrod Emick comes to Chicago directly from the Broadway company of Miss Saigon. He was also seen in the national tour of Les Miserables. Originally from Oral, SD, Jarrod studied theatre and music at South Dakota State University in Brookings, SD. He would like to thank his grandfather, Hugh Evans Walker, for the 'Three I's of Success'; his grandmother, Gerta, just for being 'Grandma'; his father, Ret. Lt. Col. Herely W. Emick, 'the one I always want to be like'; and his mother, Diane Emick, for her unconditional love and support. For that, Jarrod wishes to dedicate his performance to his mother, 'without her I wouldn't be where I am today.' I love you, Mom - a bushel and a peck!
