My name is Agnes Chen (she/her), and I’m a first-year student at Macalester. My intended major is creative writing, with minors in history and/or computer science. This is my first project with the THDA department, and I’m anticipated to join the Spring 2026 productions as well! A huge thank you to my FYC professor kt, my International Students Program (ISP) mentor and FYC preceptor Beja, and the MacFest production team for this opportunity and for all the valuable lessons throughout the rehearsal process.

Violet is a first-year at Macalester and this is her first experience with the Mac Theater Department, but she was an active member of her high school's theater department. In the past, she has played Tanya in Mamma Mia!, Helena in A Midsummer Night's Dream, and Principal Clark in Footloose. She hopes you enjoy the show!

My name is Tara (she/her) and this year am I interpreting the character of Amaryllis in the play Gabriela. I am in my first year, taking two theater classes: THDA120 and THDA105, yet my major is still undeclared. I am quite passionate about the arts of creation and have a solid theatrical background outside and inside of academic framework. I am grateful to be a part of MacFest and cannot wait to reveal what’s hiding behind the curtains. Enjoy!
