Emma of 83rd Street
Emma of 83rd Street is a modern, witty romantic comedy by Audrey Bellezza and Emily Harding. The story brings Jane Austen’s classic character, Emma Woodhouse, into the colorful and chaotic dating scene of Manhattan's Upper East Side. At twenty-three, Emma is rich, clever, and used to a comfortable life. When her sister marries and moves away, Emma faces a brand-new emotion: boredom. She quickly decides to cure it by taking a wide-eyed Ohio transplant named Nadine under her wing as her latest personal project. Standing right in Emma's way is her handsome, successful, and endlessly frustrating neighbor, George Knightley. Knightley has known Emma since they were children, and he never hesitates to lecture her about growing up. As Emma’s matchmaking plans collide with a wild mix of eccentric locals and modern mishaps, both friends start to see each other in a completely new light. It is a charming story about discovering that the best match might be hiding right next door
