The Hollywood Group Kids Participate in New BBC TV Show

Posted on: Wednesday, 12 November 2008, 15:00 CST

When it needed more than twenty-five kids for its new reality TV series entitled "Beat the Boss," venerable British Broadcasting Corporation ("BBC") recently called on The Hollywood Group www.hollywoodgroup.com, to provide the talent.

The show bears a mild resemblance to "The Apprentice," though it pits kids against adults. Talent manager and longtime Hollywood Group instructor Constance Tillotson facilitated the connection between the BBC and The Hollywood Group.

"Producers were very impressed with your clients," exclaims Jennifer Chatham, a twelve-year veteran of the BBC and current Los Angeles resident. "The Hollywood Group kids were very well prepared, highly professional and took direction extremely well. We would not hesitate to work with your firm again."

It turns out that the kids chosen to participate felt the same way. They all had a great experience on the set and they anxiously await the airing of the episode they worked on. Mindy Montoya, mother of Hollywood Group member Mia Montoya, 11, was all smiles. "Mia loved acting on 'Beat the Boss' and would delight in doing it again soon!"

"Beat the Boss" is expected to premiere in February of 2009.
