Petra

1. Where were you born and raised?
   I was born in Brooklyn, New York, raised in Chapel Hill, North Carolina.
2. If you weren’t an actor, what profession would you be in?
   I would have to be involved in literature or language somehow.
3. The first opera I was ever in was…
   My background is primarily in musical theatre.  The first operetta I was in was The Gondoliers at Interlochen Arts Camp, but I’ve never dropped the “etta” and graduated to full-fledged “opera”.
4. My favorite opera is…
   Probably La Traviata.
5. My favorite food to cook is…
   I love making anything with dough – cinnamon rolls, pizza, fresh bread.
6. People would be surprised to know that…
   I’m a professional hand model.
7. If I could spend a ‘weekend in the country’ anywhere, real or fantasy, I would travel to…
   The Scottish Highlands.
8. I like to binge-watch…
   Anything fictional.
9. What four people (living or deceased) would you like to invite for a dinner party?
   Jon Stewart, my grandfather, Madeline Kahn, David Lynch.
10. Everyone should see A Little Night Music because….
    In my opinion, it’s a perfect piece of theatre. The book scenes are as sparkly as the music, the humor as poignant as the drama; nothing is sacrificed!
