Here’s what La Spalsh had to say about the show and LaQuita:
“Two formidable young entertainment pros whom I truly believe the Hollywood Reporter should consider for the annual Next Gen issue. From concept to execution, they have done a great job, despite the lack of the safety net and endless resources of the Hollywood studio system.”
