My name is Emmanuel Cory Stephens and I go by either Emmanuel or Manny. I have always loved theater. I enjoy singing, dancing and acting. I love musicals, dancing, Star Wars, horror films, Disney movies and being silly. When I was little I was in a gospel drama group. I did martial arts like taekwondo. When I got older I went to a program at Buffalo State College. I got to be a part of lots of different classes. My favorite classes were the Theater classes. I took a combat theater where I learned how to play fight on stage and do stunt work. I took an intro to theater course, Acting 1 and I took a theater tech class where I learned how to run lighting, make accessories for props and the stage. I am in the Dance Company at Buffalo State also. My dream job is to one day work at Disney World where I could be a back up dancer for any of the shows. I am very happy to act with the Theater group called Inclusive Theater of WNY.

Been acting most of my life. Took 40 years off after graduation. Got back into it after I retired. Have done about 30 films, mostly background and some minor roles but my passion is being on stage. Plays with various community Theater groups. Love doing this.
