SCPA students featured in Black History Month video

Alize Irby Students and alumni of the San Diego School of Creative and Performing Arts are part of a television tribute to Black History Month produced by NBC 7.

The program features students from SCPA and performers from the San Diego Repertory Theatre, which has had a producing partnership with the South Bay Terraces school for several years.

Seniors Kevin Borroughs, and Alize Irby are joined by sophomore Deja Fields and alum Lisa Payton. Borroughs was part of the SCPA/San Diego Repertory's co-productions of “Zoot Suit” and “Tommy.” Irby concentrates on dance while Fields specializes in drama and musical theater.

Talking about the start she received at SCPA is alumnae, current local actress and singer Payton.
