5 Questions with Game of Tiaras Lauren Harper

What is the best part of this show?
I think the best part about this show is just the pure chaos of it all. The fact that it takes so many well-known franchises and media pieces and synthesizes them into one hilariously cohesive show is so brilliant. It’s so fun to watch and be a part of. 

How would you describe the show to someone who had no knowledge of it?
With that, my description of the show would be “Disney Princesses, Game of Thrones, and Shakespeare all rolled into one ridiculous but fantastic comedy.” 

What is your favorite part of acting?
My favorite part about acting is just the ability for me to have a positive and goal-oriented creative outlet. Both the cast and the crew work so hard to bring shows to life. I love getting to tap into a character and really exemplify my own personality as well. As a senior, I love being a role model and being able to share my love of theatre with the underclassmen. 

What would be your dream production?
My dream production would definitely be either “Legally Blonde” or “Hadestown!!”.

Describe your character in five words or less.
Cinderella is… not what you think… 😉
