Kate’s
story
Kate was born on 6th March in
1988.
She started school when she was 6 years
old.
When Kate was 9 years old, in 1999, she
lived with her parents in Batumi. Her father was an actor and started working
in the theatre. Her mother was a cook and cooked delicious food.
One Monday morning she went to school. Her
mother put some tasty cakes into her bag to eat during a long break. It was the
third lesson. The teacher read a text about the first woman cosmonaut in space,
she listened to her very attentively. She liked the story about Valentina
Tereshkova and wanted to travel to space.
During a long break she forgot her cakes and began dreaming about space
and drew a spacecraft on the wall.
In the evening she read more information
about space and wrote a play for the theatre.
In 2001 when she was 11 years old, she went
to a drama club, she read the play to the class. They liked the play, clapped
her and decided to put it on the stage.
In 2011 Kate became an actress and after
three years she played a cosmonaut at the theatre.
