How do you prepare for a performance?

I focus on studying my repertoire.

Which famous person would you like to have dinner with?

I would like it if it was someone who fits me.

Happy Endings or Sad Endings?

If the question refers to one of my performed roles, then I have to say: The result whether it is a happy or sad ending is not up to me, it depends on the role itself. But I'll always give my best to do the role justice.
