Antonio J. Dandridge, a 10 year old from Cherry Hill, NJ, isn’t new to the stage. He’s been performing for thousands since the age of five when his career began at Bethany Baptist Church in South Jersey under Abundant Harvest Entertainment. Antonio has acted in numerous school plays and has performed tap, hip-hop, modeling, African dance and drum where he studies at Dance Sensations of N.J. He also made the All Cherry Hill Band for the saxophone in the Spring of 2009. Whether it’s acting, modeling, dancing or playing instruments, Antonio loves the arts! Aside from his talents, academically, he’s in the gifted program at school! This is Antonio’s first major production at The Wilma Theater and he thanks God for the opportunity.
