Cape Town's National Acting Competition

Cape Town Acting SmallOn Thursday 16th May, Global Leadership Academy sent two students to Cape Town to compete in the next round of the National Acting Competition sponsored by KykNet and The Artscape Theatre. 

Having progressed from the provincial rounds, Yolanda Soji and Yanicka Ras were selected as part of the top 60 acting students in the country for 2013's competition. 

Competing against the country's best, Yolanda placed in the top 30 and received an encouragement prize for her performance in the second round. We are proud of both students and look forward to more good results next year. 

Yolanda, along with Olwethu Katoo and teacher Suiyen Smith, will also be competing in the World Champs of Performance Arts in Los Angeles in July this year. They still need to raise a considerable amount in order to represent South Africa in this "talent Olympics".
