As the the Grand Prize Winner, April Louise will be joining the stars in "the most impossible theater event of the year," - The 24 Hour Musicals on April 13, 2015 (tickets will soon be available here).
April Louise taught gifted second-grade children in the Baton Rouge public schools for seven years, where she was elected Teacher of the Year just before deciding to pursue a career in the theater. When she was invited to audition at a community theater (The New Venture Theatre in Baton Rouge), she got the lead role in a musical. Since then, she has received four theatre award nominations and won three of them.
