What made you choose to join the SAL Drama Society?
I've always loved the theatre, since my first production over 10 years ago. I've been involved in roughly 50-60 shows, in nearly every role. I am deeply passionate about the dramatic arts; the theatre community is somewhere I have always felt safe and welcomed, a place where I can truly be myself. I want to ensure that students have that space to explore theatre and drama, connect with those of similar interests, discover a new hobby, or simply relax and unwind with friends.
If you could play any character from a play or a movie, who would it be and why?
There's a special place in my heart for the obscure musical "Spitfire Grill." I would love to play the main character, Percy, but there's the small issue of her being a high alto and me being a bass.
If you could act alongside any famous actor or actress, who would you choose and why?
Jack Black. He just seems like an incredibly fun person to work with.
If your life was a drama production, what genre would it be and what would its title be?
Action Comedy. Not sure about the title, but I know I want myself played by Nicolas Cage.
What's your favourite board game or video game, and what makes it so enjoyable for you?
My current #1 game is "Disco Elysium." I love games that force you to think, be it rationally, emotionally, or ethically. This game hits every single point perfectly: art, story, gameplay, music, voice acting... Few other games have made me cry as much.
If you could have any animal as a pet, regardless of practicality or legality, what would you choose and why?
Galapagos Tortoise, so I could put a saddle on it and ride around town at a whole .1 miles an hour.
What's the most adventurous thing you've ever done or would like to do in the future?
I've always wanted to backpack around western Europe. Just take enough clothes to last a week, go from hotel to hotel, wandering without a plan or anything to hold me back.
