		Katrina Philip Chicago born and raised, then went to The Big Apple to pursue her Broadway dreams… There she fell head-over-heels for a Canadian, and when the pandemic hit, the two stumbled upon Nova Scotia where her passion for performance and instruction was reignited. You may recognize Katrina from a few Neptune shows (such as The Full Monty, Frozen, and Mamma Mia!). When Katrina is not performing, she's busy leading acting and dance classes.
