Reporter Shawn McAvinue puts the hard questions to dancer Hahna Briggs, performing in this year's Dunedin Fringe Festival.

Signature dish? Tempeh bolognese - I'm vegetarian.

Worst advice ever given? Stop crying - I hate when people tell me to stop crying because then I cry even more and then I get really angry.

First celebrity crush? Faith No More singer Mike Patton.

Most memorable fancy dress? I went to a drag night dressed as a farmer - I shaved my hair off and I used the hair to create a goatee beard. I wore gumboots, rugby shorts and a bush shirt - I looked awesome.

What is your greatest guilty pleasure? The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

Most unusual animal you have gutted? A chicken - I grew up on a poultry farm and work in my Dad's factory in Oamaru. That's one of the reasons why I'm vegetarian.

Dance performance Cut. Paste. Collaborate starts tonight at Allen Hall Theatre and ends tomorrow.
