Samantha Edwards

as Hodel

Samantha is thrilled to be playing the part of Hodel, her favorite character since she was 10 years old-ish. She has loved performing ever since her 5th grade Violin debut where she played "What Child is This" in a Christmas concert. She has a passion for violin and choir and has been doing both for about 8 years. In that time she has participated in two Missoula Children's Theater plays, and participated in Regional Choir and over 4 major Show Choir performances. She has also played several violin duets with "the fiddler", her father and violin mentor. When she's not preparing for something musical, she likes playing soccer, slalom- waterskiing, and sporting bright red lipstick! On her lazy days she can be found re-reading the Hunger Games Trilogy. Go Team Peeta!
