Betty (Olivia)

Betty is the indomitable engine of the company. While their families fled to the countryside, Betty and Ronald stayed in London, convinced the stage lights would outlast the bombs. She keeps the show running on sheer resourcefulness and stubborn nerve. Her favorite Twelfth Night tradition is playing parlor games, when the war feels gloriously far away.
