Our own superstar, Kelly O

Published on April 4, 2010 in Staff. 0 Comments



Kelly O went to London last week to audition for The Royal Academy Of Dramatic Arts (aka, R.A.D.A.).   Her audition was on the day of her arrival, which translated into being around 3am, Denver time!   She  is one of 3000 applicants for 28 placements.

We would just like to say “You go, girl!!!!”  We’re so proud of you we wish you luck, Kel.  Your energy and enthusiasm is infectious.  You’re already a superstar to us.  We’re lucky to have you at the Perk :lol:
