Eliyana Abraham is passionate about directing and choreographing theatre for young audiences. Through her TYA work, she tells stories that inspire children to pursue their dreams, think outside the box, and become better citizens of tomorrow. Recently, she directed and choreographed the premiere production of The Woman Who Built the Brooklyn Bridge by Sam Melton —a new TYA musical telling the story of Emily Roebling— at Princeton Summer Theater where it played to sold-out audiences for four weeks and eleven performances.
