[NABS-L] Looking For Students Participating In Theater, musicals, etc

[cape.amanda at gmail.com]

Hi Elizabeth,
Wow that is amazing! Have you fulfilled all of these roles in productions with sighted cast members? Do you have low vision or are you blind? I have light perception and am interested in acting, but cannot make the call. I hope to hear from you soon.
Thanks,
Amanda
