Members of a local youth and talent development initiative put on a star-studded extravaganza to celebrate Freedom Day, recently on 27 April 2018.
The recently launched MyFAME Foundation was founded by husband and wife partners Bono and Tdee Rambani.
The foundation held its first audition at the Olivedale Library, where youths arrived to participate on 21 April.
Youngsters had fun preparing for the MyFAME auditions held on 21 April at the Olivedale Library.
“The auditions were in preparation for our first talent showcase event though we are hosting on Freedom Day,” said Bono Rambani.
According to Rambani, the organisation aims to create platforms for young people to discover their gifts and use them to impact the world.
Rambani said, “We have participants coming from Randburg and surrounding areas such as Cosmo city, Honeydew, Diepsloot and Windsor.”
MyFAME is a faith-based organisation that aims to develop young talent in the fashion, arts, multimedia and entertainment industries.
The foundation partners with communities in developing their talent and releasing them into the marketplace fully equipped and industry-ready.
Rambani continued, “Many youngsters from disadvantaged communities aspire to make it big in the entertainment industry, but lack the opportunities that are available to those who are closer to the mainstream industries in big cities.
“This leaves them unable to pursue their dreams, thereby resorting to other means, which may not always be good to make a living. MyFAME will scout for talent through various means and events, in particular, disadvantaged communities across the racial, social and religious barriers, giving them an equal opportunity to enter this exciting field.”
The Free Your Dreams talent showcase event was held on 27 April and was free of charge to the public.
Participants also got to network with other artists in the entertainment industry to gain knowledge, as well as receive guidance about how they master their craft.
The event took place all day at the Evolution Dance Studio, First Floor Pine Park Centre, 2 Dalmeny Road, Randburg.
