Hard work, effort, sweat, time, all of them exerted with full passion and effort. Usually, students are free from any duty when the clock hits 6 in the evening, but not for them.
Quarantine, which includes in different forms of training; acting, singing, dancing, and physical training, all had to be bared for 6 months. And finally, on the 28th of September 2016 at Prof Dr. Djajusman Auditorium and Performance Hall, came the time for them to shine.
Time to prove everyone the results of those sweat and tears days they had to go through together. This, is the story of the journey of Mr & Ms LSPR 2016 Coronation Night.
