Veronica Rosas
Veronica has been a storyteller and performing artist for almost 30 years. She was forced into it as a desperately shy child and it very quickly became the only thing she would ever care about again. She has studied theater and written for and performed in shows throughout the U.S.
When she turned 30, she had a midlife crisis as a bored housewife and switched her focus to circus. For the past decade she has dedicated herself to performing, coaching, and choreographing aerial arts.
She has recently turned her focus back to her first love - writing and performing live theater. 79 Ways to Die is her love letter to her most favorite place in the entire world, The Renaissance Faire.
Veronica wrote, directed, and produced 79 Ways to Die and with it, founded Theatre of Mutiny.
