Pamela as homecoming queen

Open quoteI didn’t do any theater in high school because the stage was not accessible. But one amazing thing did happen: I was crowned homecoming queen. As far as I know, I was probably the first homecoming queen with a disability. There I was on stage with a thousand people focusing their attention on me, and I become addicted.End quote
