After two weeks of excitement, the theatre week for the music reality TV show, Nigerian Idol season 6, recently came to an end as the judges finally selected the 11 contestants who would be battling it out in the finals.
Initially, 68 contestants were selected for the theatre week, but after a series of tests and performances, only 11 scaled through.

This brought the dreams of many of the contestants to an end as the judges felt they were either not strong enough to compete or had shown little to no improvement in the past week.
