That’s actually my DILs friend Alexie from Luzia (Circ du Soliel). My son got his then GF the gig as cast cafeteria attendant (Denver 2017) and Alexie chewed his food forever so he was always last to leave. He would practice his English with her and she would explain idioms. They are still friends.
