AgelWorld '09 Talent Show Auditions

Think you have what it takes to be in the AgelWorld 2009 Talent Show? We do!

If you would like to audition for an opportunity to perform on stage during this year’s event, send us a video of you performing your talent. Here are the basic guidelines, which can also be found in the Agelive Newsroom:
  • Acts must be no longer than 3 ½ minutes, no exceptions
  • All performances should be in good taste. Acts containing music, lyrics, gestures, costumes or material that is found offensive will not be permitted
  • No lip-synching
  • If your act is chosen to participate in the AgelWorld Talent Show, you must attend a dress rehearsal that will be held Thursday, September 3rd.
  • You must use the same piece in the talent show originally performed in the audition video. You may enhance or take away from your piece, but it must be the same material you auditioned and submitted. Remember to keep within the 3 ½ minute timeframe.
  • Contestants will be responsible for costume/clothing, make up, and music or musical assistance.
  • Judges will base their evaluation in the following categories:
    1. Showmanship
    2. Stage presence
    3. Creativity
    4. Quality of act
    5. Audience reaction
    6. Overall performance
