Olivia Snow caught the theater bug early, performing in musicals and choirs since the age of eight in her hometown of Bigfork, Montana. She’s called Klamath Falls home for the past six years and has been involved at the Ross Ragland Theater for the last two—you might’ve seen her recently as Anastasia!
