It's showtime at The Apollo! The iconic Amateur Night at the famed Apollo Theater in Harlem will be the center of attention once again. After almost two years music acts will return to compete for a chance at a $20-thousand grand prize.
The pandemic forced the show to go online for the past couple of years, but it's back. Amateur Night is one of the longest-running shows in history, having been around since the 1930s.
My sister and I were blessed to have performed at Amateur Night several years ago. Although we didn't win the grand prize, we were happy to say we were a part of history and that is a memory I will never forget.
