WHILE most of her friends were enjoying their holidays on the Southern Downs, nine-year-old dancer/singer/actress Faithe Repo has been on quite an adventure.
A student at The Ritz Performing Arts Centre in Stanthorpe, Faithe has just returned from an ARTS event in Florida, USA, where she performed before some of the top theatrical television, film and commercial agents.
Rhonda Binnie of Ritz said Faithe had been approached by several of the top agents for representation and will continue to work with them to audition for places within the performing arts industry.
“She has been dancing for four years but moved to Stanthorpe at the beginning of 2014 and started training with us then,” Rhonda said.
“She and her family were in the States for three weeks but spent a full week at the arts event.
“One of my Brisbane students did this event in 2013 and has had non-stop work in movies, TV and commercials ever since.
“This time Faithe was the first of our Stanthorpe students to go and she went with two of our Brisbane dancers.”
Faithe will also continue her training at The Ritz and will be part of the centre’s open day event on Thursday 22 January from 3pm to 5pm.
