Actress, Kattina Michele, is to play our Amelia Harris! She has spent her career sharing stories and information through engaging programs and shows. Kattina believes that playing costumed characters and sharing stories of the people and energy of the period is profoundly exhilarating. In Kat’s opinion, the best historical stories are told from those who lived it!
