Everyone has a Talent, Sign-up for the Talent Show today!


It's time to get your applications in for this year's talent show at the Hemlock "Little World's" Fair! Last year was seriously amazing and we have some wonderful gifted acts that loved to entertain! We are looking for acts to show us your stuff, for a chance to claim victory and win some money! You can work together or be a solo act to share your talents - singing, playing an instrument, martial arts, dancing, jumping rope, jokes, magic tricks, or anything that impresses your family and friends! Want to sign up for the talent show, but you just are not sure you have a talent? Everyone has a talent!

Don't know what yours is? Ask your family and friends what you're good at, sometimes it is something that you're not aware of. You can also find inspiration for a talent show act by watching YouTube videos, popular acts on TV talent shows, or watch sketch comedy. See what works and what doesn't for you! Be sure you pick a talent that you are good at. Anything from dancing, to singing, to juggling is great, even stand-up comedy or acting is good. Anything in between too, as long as you're good at it. Pick the thing that you're the best at; after all, you'll need to be talented if you want to win. You can do a solo act or create a group. If you go with a group, make sure that everyone is comfortable with the act you choose. If you pick your group before you pick your act, take some time to figure out what each member's strengths are, and base your act around everyone. Remember, you will need to practice your act every day. When you think you've practiced enough, practice some more. Do a dress rehearsal. This will iron any kinks out of the show, and give everyone in your group a taste of performing in front of an audience. On the day of the show, dress for the occasion. Costumes, even simple ones, will make a big impact. Work the crowd. Even if you have stage fright, know how to work the crowd. Smile and make eye contact with the crowd and judges. If you're singing or doing stand-up, move around the stage. Do not shy away from the microphone, speak into it loudly and clearly. Wave when you come out, and bow when you're finished. Be as creative and original as you can! Put your personality in it! Choose some great music, or a great song. Make sure you pick one that will grab the audience's attention! A catchy, up-beat song will keep the audience and judges from losing interest. It's more important than you think. Don't be upset if you don't win. There's always next year, and if you start practicing now you'll be amazing by the time another talent show comes around! Once one door closes, another door opens. Smile and have fun! It doesn't matter if you don't win. Do it for yourself. For more information, visit our web site at Hemlock Fair - Talent Show!
