AFC
gave birth to The Al Fann & Company Theatrical Ensemble in 1965
housing a select group of youths from Harlem, New York.
The performing unit trained and developed a group of highly
professional young people emanating from a grass-roots base of raw
talents, determined wills and a zest to be something.
This energetic group of young people, ranging in age from twelve
to sixteen years of age, drove for excellence and won.
Out of a national competition of 53 entrants, they emerged the #1 Performing
unit in Canada’s Expo ’67. The
Al Fann Theatrical Ensemble went on to become the most outstanding group
of actors and actresses – achieving multitudes of film and stage
performances from Townhall in New York to the White House. |
