Mira Kocherhans

Mira is stoked to be performing with ThreePenny Theatre again! She recently graduated from UVU, where she double majored in Theatre and English. Recent roles include Lady Macbeth (Macbeth; NYC), Astrov (Uncle Vanya; UVU), and Marianne (Constellations; UVU). This show has been a compelling impetus for connecting with her own Jewish ancestry, and she hopes it can serve similarly for others, inciting them to recognize important pieces of their own identity.
