Meet the Cast of Midsummer! Spotlight on Kat Anderegg (Mustardseed)

Kat Anderegg is new to Classics on the Rocks as of this season - though honestly, what did we do without her? In addition to playing Mustardseed, she is our resident music guru, writing and playing lovely fairy songs (she's also currently a part of singer-songwriter duo Failing Organs, if you want to check that out!).

What's your #1 bucket list role, Shakespeare or otherwise?

Mrs. Lovett, not gunna lie.

What do you do when you're not acting - or what would you do if you weren't an actor?

I make music and I paint.

What's your most embarrassing childhood memory (that you're willing to share)?

When I was in the 5th grade I ripped my pants straight up the middle while playing kickball at recess.

If a movie was being made of your life which actor would you choose to play you? What's the movie called?

Tina Fey or Robert Downey Jr for sure. The movie would be titled: "A Sick Joke".

Join us this summer for one of Shakespeare's most beloved comedies filled with frolicking fairies, a ridiculous troupe of actors, and the most epic love triangle ever seen.

A Midsummer Night's Dream performs July 12, 13, 19, 20 at 7pm and July 21 at 5pm at the Alchemical Theatre Laboratory. Tickets may be purchased in advance here.

About Classics on the Rocks:

Shakespeare doesn't have to be complicated and it's our mission at Classics on the Rocks to make classical theatre accessible, exciting, palatable, and fun for everyone - whether you're brand new to Shakespeare or have read the canon cover to cover.

At Classics on the Rocks, we believe that just as whiskey doesn't need anything more than rocks to tame its bite. Shakespeare doesn't need fancy concepts, modernizations, frilly costumes, or big sets to make it relatable. All you need are talented actors who trust the text and tell the story. It's classics served simply on the rocks.
