Guest Bio

Broghanne Jessamine is the Founder and Owner of Elemental Women Productions and originally from Scotland. Since emigrating to New York City, Broghanne has worked in Theater, Voice over and Film. Prior to moving to New York, Broghanne participated in numerous performing arts cultural festivals throughout Scotland and in Germany to bring theater and performance that explores social issues to a wider audience.

In her work in acting Broghanne found a passion and need to form a company that truly focused on developing and producing women's work. Creating a community of women artists joined in their want to share the stories and lessons they wanted growing up and so EWP was born.

Elemental Women Productions LLC is a New York City based production company. We produce theater, film and more that empowers women's voices and experiences.
