Tinesheia Howard – NLCP Class of 2007, Sophomore at Lincoln College has outstanding news to report
She just finished the winter play as a supporting actress in the Odd Couple and has been awarded the lead role in Tennessee Williams one-act play, “Hello Burtha”. These successes and her honor roll performance at Lincoln have ensured her acceptance into Lincoln College’s new 4-year degree program in Theatre.
All of these achievements at Lincoln College have earned Tinesheia the Irene Ryan Award for Excellence in Acting. As part of the benefits of this award Tinesheia will compete next year with other actors nationwide for future opportunities in the theater realm. This accomplishment is a BIG deal and we celebrate her excellent news. Some day when she wins an Oscar or Tony Award you can say you saw her first at NLCP!
