Norleah Harrington
as Olivia
senior, is so excited to be working on this production of Twelfth Night! She has been in B’DAT since her freshman year and has worked on shows like Romeo and Juliet, HAIR, and The Wolves.

Kat Eastwick
as Orsino
senior, is absolutely jazzed to make their mainstage B’DAT debut! Kat previously was student designer and head scenic designer/ painter for many projects. This is their first-ever acting performance! To Kat, Illyria is everywhere and nowhere and belongs to anyone and everyone, a place to both lose and find yourself (reflected in the set they designed for this production!)

junior, a longtime musical theater lover, Gabby is elated to make her B'DAT debut and welcome all to Illyria! Gabby has been playing piano for about 12 years, plays chamber music on the weekends, and has been singing since she could speak. To Gabby, Illyria is a place of exuberance, drama, and mystery...and of course, the best place to make mischief! (Teehee)
