Alana Mara is a Chicago native studying Theatre, Italian, and Meteorology. She is thrilled to be closing out her collegiate acting career with this beautifully off-beat production. You may have seen her as Kara in How to Defend Yourself in the Lab Theatre (2024), A Christmas Carol (2023) as Liza Nubkins and Hair (2023) at the Clarence Brown Theatre, and Schwarzy in 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee (2023) at Oak Ridge Playhouse (and maybe in the future you’ll see her on stage at the academy awards). She thanks you for witnessing her fulfill her dream of being on stage.
