Seasoned entertainers, persons looking to nurture their musical or creative side or anyone looking to have an entertainment idea brought to life now have a professional entity willing to help with the processes.
This as Edna Manley College of the Visual and Performing Arts trained musician Rodney Small has opened the doors of his RS Academy.
Known as RS Academy on Instagram and RS Productions on Facebook, the institution which physically opened its doors on Monday but has been operating online for two weeks, is located in Kingstown on McCoy Street in the Brewster Building.
