Hi Alberta! Spooky Files is your first on screen role. What was something interesting that you learned on set?
A: I learned a lot about how TV series are made. Continuity is one of the things that I found interesting. I was really surprised. I learnt there is free food and dessert, that was a big plus. I am very grateful to the caterers.
Which Spooky would you definitely not want to meet in real life?
A: Truth fairy because she makes you tell the truth and there are a lot of things I do not want to confess to random people. However, her costume is AWESOME.
It’s our Magic and Myths issue and you’ve appeared in a couple of fairy-tale themed stage productions. Who was your favourite fairy-tale themed character to play?
A: I honestly cannot decide. My first musical was Frozen, based off the Disney movie Frozen. I played young Anna. It was thrilling because it was my first professional show and I got to travel to different cities. My second and most recent musical was called Midnight; I played a little girl called Stella, who was the narrator of the story and the daughter of the main character. This musical was very exciting because I was the original cast of an Australian made musical which there are not many of. In Frozen I had girls my age and in Midnight I was the youngest (yay). In Midnight I had one costume whilst in Frozen I had lots of awesome costumes and a wig. It is impossible to pick.
What advice would you give to Total Girls who are interested in acting professionally?
A: Listen to directions, do not give up, put in the effort, cherish every moment, and have fun. Also don’t be TOO MUCH of a diva.
Spooky Files premieres on ABC Kids on October 23 at 5pm and airs daily. All episodes will be available on ABC iView too!
