Amanda Ebeye tells Ademola Olonilua why she does more of soap operas than Nollywood movies
You once said that some of your friends who are actresses encouraged you to become an actress. How did they manage to do that?
I had a particular friend who was
taking me for auditions. Back then, auditions were held at the National
Theatre and Winnie’s Hotel in Surulere (Lagos). Actors would hang around
and wait for audition notices. Those were the two most likely places
artistes converge for auditions. My friend knew I always wanted to act
and she was acting partly but in smaller roles. She was and is still
more of an actress than a model till date. We are not really close
friends anymore.
