Q: Can you please introduce yourself?
I’m Anna. I play Character #5 and Marinel Ubaldo. I’m in grade 12 and I live in Ottawa.
Q: What does being in 12 mean to you?
It’s a chance for me to create and inspire social change through art.
Q: What’s your favourite part of the natural world?
Probably stars because they make me feel alone in the world and sometimes that’s comforting.
Q: What’s a specific Climate Change concern for you?
That the majority of our world’s climate literature is written entirely in English, making it inaccessible to approximately half of the global population.
Q: When the audience leaves 12, you hope they will …
Realize that they weren’t just spectators of another play, but that this is all very real.
Stop making excuses.
Q: Do you have a hobby?
I really like writing, singing, and watching movies.
Q: What’s your favourite word?
simultaneously
