Wild Horse Theater to hold auditions for youth talent competition
The judges are waiting, the spotlight is on, and the microphone is hot.
It’s time to shine at "Carson City’s Got Talent," a youth talent competition coming up Saturday, Oct. 1 at the Carson City Community Center.
Sponsored by the Wild Horse Children’s Theater, "Carson City's Got Talent" showcases the unique artistic abilities of Northern Nevada youth ages 5-18 in areas such as instrumental music and vocals, dancing, acting and other performance skills.
Children will compete for cash awards, trophies and other special prizes, while entertaining an audience.
Preliminary auditions are scheduled for Friday, Sept. 23 at 4:00 p.m. at the Brewery Arts Center, 449 W. King Street in Carson City.
Those auditioning in the preliminaries will have one minute to present their talent. Up to 40 acts will be selected to perform in the competition finals on Oct. 1.
There is no fee for preliminary auditions, but there is a $25 registration fee per act for contestants advancing to the finals.
Each act has a time limit of three minutes in final competition. Prizes for first, second and third place will be awarded in each age category, along with a special “Judges Award” and “People’s Choice Award,” voted on by the audience.
Participants will be organized by age into three divisions: youth ages 5-8, junior ages 9-13, and senior ages 14-18.
Local industry leaders, artistic professionals and community leaders will judge the "Carson City's Got Talent" competition, awarding points based on four criteria: artistry and creativity, overall entertainment value, technique, and costume/appearance. The decisions of the judges are final.
To sign up for a preliminary competition audition time, call 887-0438 or email to pat@wildhorsetheater.com.
