Albert "Ace" Dudley III
Amahl
Albert "Ace" Dudley III is an 11-year-old talent, the youngest child and only son of Albert II and Jessica Dudley. Ace, alongside his two older sisters, formed "The Dudbots," a dynamic trio that brought hope and inspiration during the pandemic through over 40 virtual worship performances shared worldwide.
Ace is currently a 4.0 6th grader at Oakwood Adventist Academy and recently received a Full Presidential Scholarship to Alabama A&M University following an electrifying impromptu performance at the 2024 Homecoming Gospel Explosion. Ace's journey has been marked by both challenges and triumphs. At just six years old, Ace faced a life-threatening attack during a church family camping trip, where a pit bull tore off his right eyelid. Despite the severity, God’s hand was clearly over him, guiding him through emergency surgery.
Again, in October 2023, Ace overcame another significant challenge after falling into a 12-foot skate pit, breaking his wrist and fracturing his skull. Through these trials, Ace’s resilience and the powerful calling on his life have shone brightly, showing that his purpose is truly unstoppable.
Ace loves sports, especially soccer, and his passion for the Lord shines through in everything he does. Known for his kindness and respect towards others, Ace is admired by children and adults alike. He is thrilled to play Amahl in "Amahl and the Night Visitors," bringing his love of music, storytelling, and faith to life on stage.
