Emily O'Brien, The Young and the Restless' Jana, is currently appearing in the new musical The Bedroom Window at the Odyssey Theater in Los Angeles. The show runs through September 26, with a special Y&R night on September 3 that offers the opportunity to meet Emily and other Y&R cast members. Emily plays the role of Gwen, described as:
Gwen, a young writer who is fresh out of graduate school, is poised and ready to start the next phase of her life that has been more or less scripted by her well-to-do family. She moves in with George, her longtime boyfriend and rising star in her father's company, just as has been intended for quite some time. As she returns to her old home, she is also reconnected with her old life, and the people in it – namely her brother, Johnny, and her best friend, Michael. Though they all want things to be like they were before she left two years before, they simply are not. Each has changed, some more than others, some in ways not welcomed, and they all struggle with the discrepancy between expectations, yearnings, and reality. In the midst of this less than ideal transition back into her old life, Gwen's world is turned on its head when she meets Porter, a carefree painter whose life philosophy is a stark contrast to the life on which she is about to embark – and as their romance blossoms she begins to nurture the true side of her that she was about to stifle with caviar and pearls.
The Bedroom Window is a new musical that explores the sacrifices, necessities and choices involved in change and growth - in short, growing up.
