Natalie Rae Wass

Tanna
Natalie Rae Wass can't wait to share this show and this festival with you - say hi when you see her out and about catching shows in most every time slot she isn't performing in (if previous years are anything to go by!). She's been seen in shows by Ben San Del, Unfold the Sky, Green T Productions, the Ministry for Cultural Warfare, the Old Log Theater, Bedlam Productions and many more - including last year's show in the same place with the same director 'Works in Progress' Oh yeah - and that one time she wrote produced and starred in the fifth best selling show of the 2013 MN Fringe Festival 'Fashion Risk or the Accidental Nudist'. She'd love to talk to you about mascot opportunities (for you or her) around town and also performs bubble parties and does a lot of elfing around the holiday season when not on stage or in the audience of a theater. Catch her in Yo Ho Hum: A Pirate's Midlife Crisis with Hey Rube! Productions in this same festival and venue!
