What is your favourite bit about performing?
My favorite thing about performing would have to be the feeling I get when I’m on stage. After months of hard work it all finally coming together. The feeling of accomplishing something amazing that makes everyone happy.
Would you like a career on stage or behind the scenes?
I’m not sure yet. I definitely would love a career on stage but I don’t know if I have what it takes but I will definitely keep doing musicals even if it isn’t as a career.
