Q: Can you tell me about your role in the musical?
A: My role in the musical is The Witch. At the beginning of the show, she wishes for her youth and beauty, because she is just an old hag that has powers. But before the end of the first act, she loses her powers in order to be beautiful again. My character is probably one of the toughest I have ever played, it takes a lot of strength and power to sing her songs and it also is a tough one emotionally as well. I think I am similar to my character because I am realistic. Throughout the show, The Witch is basically the person that thinks about everything logically, and even though people might not like the outcome, it is what needs to happen.

Q: What is your funniest/favorite behind the scenes memory so far?
A: My favorite scene is definitely my rap. It is so fun for me to do something I normally wouldn’t do on stage, which is mostly singing and dancing, and change it up with a rap. It is also very challenging with my breath support and stuff like that, which I like.
