Mia Inez Hayes is both heartwarmed and heartbroken to be participating in her last A Christmas Carol in her college tenure. Although it’s been a wild ride at UTK so far, having roles at the CBT such as Fan and Mercy Miggot (A Christmas Carol ’23 and ’24), Pat (Kinky Boots), ensemble roles in both The Play that Goes Wrong and Inherit the Wind, and most recently, Mrs. Dashwood in Sense and Sensibility, she hopes that future hold many great horizons. Her love goes to her director, Patrick Lanczki, without whom she might have never kept pursuing her love for acting. Hoping to fulfill his trust, she wishes you a very entertaining show!
