Photo Coverage: Tony Danza Helps Showcase the Stars of Tomorrow For The Police Athletic League's Teen Acting Program
Tony Danza is the 'Peoples Choice' not only because he won that award (among many). He is also the choice for hundreds of New York City kids for whom he is a role model in his capacity as Board Member of the NYC Police Athletic League (PAL). Tony recently launched PAL's first acting program under the philosophy 'when you teach a kid how to act, you teach them how to act.' Alongside PAL's other athletic, academic, and artistic programs, the Acting Program has become an instant favorite. Last night students were showcased in their stage debut at the Gerald w. Lynch Theater in Manhattan in a variety show which was developed over the last few months.
