Five questions with Game of Tiaras Anastasia Conerty

What is the best part of this show?
In my opinion, the best part of the show is when the animated snowman comes out and starts messing with Smeagol and the King. I think that scene really captures the humorous and over-the-top nature of the show, while also illustrating the general fear that everyone in the show has of being sued for copyright infringement. 

How would you describe the show to someone who had no knowledge of it?
The show is basically Game of Thrones with Disney Princesses. 
(Here’s a description for those who don’t know what Game of Thrones is): A bunch of bratty princesses are fighting over the kingdom and are creating chaos along the way. 

What is your favorite part of acting?
I would have to say that my favorite part of acting is getting the chance to be someone completely different from yourself. My character, Ellie, in the show is much snotty and self-absorbed than I am in real life, so it’s very interesting getting to have those characteristics! Even if the traits that I’m portraying aren’t morally great, it’s fun trying to capture the essence of those traits in my acting. 

What would be your dream production?
My dream production would have to be Legally Blonde. 

Describe your character in five words or less.
My dream production would have to be Legally Blonde.
