Yolanda has been found!

by Janine Sobeck

The Lincoln Theatre was hopping on Saturday as many talented young women auditioned to be a part of Arena's upcoming production of Crowns.  We knew that we would have some stellar auditions, but we were continuously blown away by the ladies on stage.  As members of our staff have said:

"I got tingles listening to those ladies last night.  So much talent!"

"I was excited to see so many talented young black actresses show up."

 "The search has re-confirmed my faith in the DC acting pool (especially young singer/dancers, wow!) and the energy throughout the day was phenomenal."

"It was fantastic to see so many people who were so excited about the process that they just came to watch the audition."

The competition was definitely fierce but Yolanda has been found.  The winner of the search will be announced TODAY on ABC's (Channel 7) 5:00 news!  Don't miss it!

If you were there (either as an auditioner or an as audience member) we'd love to hear about your experience!
