 Niche Talent Reyn Mager Aubrey debuted on Hawaii 5-0 this week!! He had a great time working on the set for an entire week!!
Getting booked on Hawaii 5-0 was definitley a way to end a busy year for this busy 13 year old. He starred  in West Side Story this Spring playing "Tony" at Honolulu Waldorf School ( he also speaks spanish!) and has been busy building his acting resume by training with Scott Rogers and participating in The Hawaii Theatre Junior Ensemble with Eden Lee Murray honing his acting skills. It looks like all of the hard work is really paying off for Reyn!!
The director was impressed with Reyn when he and his cast mates presented him with a script that they had written in their down time on set that would bring their characters back for future episodes!! What a talent!! We are so proud of you Reyn!!

Celia Kenney Debuts in The Descendants!!!

Aspiring Young Actress Lands Scene with George Clooney!

Celia Kaleialoha Kenney (13) was born and raised on the island of Oahu, Hawaii. Granddaughter of legendary Hawaiian entertainers Ed Kenney and Beverly Noa, Celia displayed an affinity for performing at a young age. Her grandfather performed as ‘Wang Ta' in the original Broadway production of Flower Drum Song, and so in Celia the song lives on. Father Ed Kenney Jr. is owner/chef of Town and Downtown Restaurants, and mother Kristen Kenney is a graphic artist and jewelry designer, surrounding her with creativity from birth.

Her “pinch me” moment recently came when Celia was cast in the film, The Descendants, as 'Reina', a boy crazy, carb shunning friend of character ‘Matt King’s’ daughter.  The film is the screen adaptation of the novel by local writer Kaui Hart Hemmings, starring George Clooney and directed by Alexander Payne. Celia’s scene includes Clooney, as well as several of the other main characters. This high profile job is what earned Celia her coveted Screen Actors Guild card. She and her brother Duke (9) were also recently cast as principals in a Capital One Commercial, all leading to a favorable start to an acting career.

In addition to the big screen, Celia has been exercising her vocals and performing skills on the theater stage. She starred in her first Community Theatre production at the age of 8. Some of the shows under her belt include Cinderella, Gigi, Children of Eden and most recently as ‘Bonnie’ in Anything Goes. Her favorite role to date has been as ‘Little Red’ in The Performing Arts Center of Kapolei's Into The Woods. She has many solo performances on her roster as well and takes great pride in being a member of Diamond Head Theatre's Shooting Stars program.

One of Celia's goals is to attend the Tisch School of the Arts at NYU and someday perform on Broadway.

Celia continues to pursue her passion by studying voice, ballet, tap, jazz and acting, as well as auditioning for future big screen roles.

Congratulations to Wanao'o Eldridge, Mahina Garcia and Jay Fries for booking this fun Pizza Hut Commercial, directed by Keith Kandell.

Sonya Balmores is "Malina" in "Soul Surfer" The Bethany Hamilton Story.

Sonya just wrapped up filming for this inspirational movie and when we asked her how filming went, this is what she had to say: "Booking a role on Soul Surfer was a great opportunity for me personally and also a huge honor to be part of Bethany Hamilton's story.
It was awesome meeting Helen Hunt, Dennis Quaid, and the other young actors.
They were all really happy to be working and surfing in Hawaii.
It was especially fun for me because I got to work with some old friends, like actor Ross Thomas who I worked along side with in Beyond the Break about 4 years ago! The Director of Soul Surfer, Sean McNamara was also the producer and one of our directors on Beyond the Break, it's so easy and fun working with him, he's really laid back and always has a great attitude.
The local crew is the best of course and this time I got to hang out with a lot of the young up and coming surfer girls in Hawaii. In fact Alyssa Quizon was my stunt double for the film, she even cut her hair to match me!
Producers say the movie may come out in September, I hope everyone enjoys it and that the audience doesn't hate me for too long because I play Malina, the tough competitive girl in the movie. I can't wait for people all over the world to hear about Bethany and how God turned a scary situation into something good! Working with Bethany and her family is so encouraging, their entire family and their faith is quite inspirational." To see more of Sonya please go to www.nichemodelsandtalent.com.
