    The actors have a long history of performing together, dating back to their 7th grade year at Albert Leonard Middle School where they starred in the musical The Wiz. In 8th grade they landed starring roles in the musical Aida. Their early success has open doors to new avenues in theater. Both students are enrolled in New Rochelle High School's PAVE program.
