TaRhonda Thomas of 9News got to be a Supreme for a Day. She got to wear the hot pink, she got dance and vocal lessons, and yes, she got to stop in the name of love during the Friday morning newscast, with some help from the national touring production of “Motown the Musical” cast and crew. We followed the making of the fun 9News segment. Helping out were Musical Director/Conductor Darryl Archibald, Dance Captain Rod Harrelson,  Wardrobe Supervisor Heather Yerrick and, as The Supremes, Jennie Harney and Krisha Marcano.
