Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers

Isabella Sirota began working with us as a five-year-old chorus member in a production of THE MUSIC MAN. Today, she’s a student at the High School of Performing Arts with classical credits …Ashley Chico was just one of the dancers in a dance studio in our association some years ago. Today, she’s a student at Brooklyn College with a line of credentials looking at a career as a singer… Adele Wendt was another of those dancers. A shy quiet thing that was lovely in ballet work. Today, she has off-Broadway credentials including working along side a professional from the B’way productions of HAIR and LES MISERABLES. Mohammed Saad Ali was just one of the “drama club” members at Kingsborough College. Today, he’s a respected playwright still aglow over a reading of his latest work done by a gaggle of Equity actors at an off-Broadway house (done WHILE he was playing Othello)… MICHAEL CURCIO played a role in a reading of a new play at the Drama Book Store some years ago when he was a “little boy.” Just last week he walked into the M Center… MIKE, YOU’RE NEXT!
