Spotlight on Olivia Reed
The Plant Operator 1 in LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS
Olivia is a puppeteer and visual artist with a deep love for storytelling, design, and larger-than-life characters. She has been obsessed with musicals since she was little and has dreamed of being in one for many years—so performing as Audrey II in LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS feels like a perfect, surreal collision of passions that she’s still pinching herself about. Her past work includes performances at Children’s Fairyland, the Fratello Marionettes, and the Swedish Cottage Marionette Theatre, where she brings puppets to life for audiences of all ages. When she isn’t on stage, Olivia is either petting cats, playing pool, or drawing.
