Tara Cowan Petty

<p>Tara is part of a very talented and musical Muni family. Her mother is Deb Watts Elliott, who often accompanies shows. Tara has been a performer, flute player and sign language interpreter for many Muni shows. Tara made her Muni stage debut in the chorus of <em>Fiddler on the Roof </em>in 1998. The first show she played in the orchestra for was <em>Cinderella </em>in 2000. You will often see her in the orchestra when her aunt, Mary Myers is the conductor. She is one of our sign language interpreters for shows. The first show she was an interpreter for was <em>Ragtime </em>in 2005. Tara's Chihuahua, Polly, also made an appearance on the Muni stage as Bruiser in our production of <em>Legally Blonde </em>in 2018.</p> <p><br></p> <p>Want to get involved in this project?
