About

Kat Armstrong

Actress, artist, hot mess, etc., making art in Moh'kinstsis.

Katherine! (she, her, hers) Look! – she's swimming in piano silences, imagined constellations, demonic uni-debt she won’t take to the grave, that aside you gave, and the wild hum of spending time with rain. Lately she’s been Fringe-ing with DATE NIGHT, echoing in caves with POOR RECOLLECTIONS, burning in KINDLING, crying over students’ writing at ATP, literally humming in WAGONSTAGE, Marie Tharp-ing in FORMATIONS, video-producing at QUEST, filming with LBS/SQ"PERFORMANCE, animating for LUNCHBOX, and thespiannn-ing with UCALGARY and BARD ON BOWER. If you dare: swim with her; tell scary stories about soft grieving ghosts, dreams, love, and if you should take estrogen (yes).
