The wildly popular “Orcas Has Talent” show will light up the Orcas Center stage on February 9, 2013 where the audience will vote for their favorite. The winner will once again take home a $500 cash prize!
Auditions will be held on January 19 but acts must sign up earlier. For planning purposes we always need to know early who will be participating in the show. We are encouraging artists to start now so they will be ready for their January audition.
Five hundred dollars is a lot of money and we want people to really go for it!
The always fantastic “Orcas Has Talent Junior” competition featuring the up and coming talented Orcas youth will be held on January 19th at 2 pm. The winner will be awarded a $50 cash prize and the chance to compete with the adults!
Back by popular demand is the “Special Talents” video. The video is viewed during a voting round and is a 7 minute display of locals showing off their hilarious and often amazing talents. A few from previous years included: a person whose eyes go in two different directions, a singing dentist & his assistant and even talented animals!
If you are ready to sign up for Orcas Has Talent, Orcas Has Talent Junior competition or would like to be featured in the “Special Talents” video, please send a request to: orcashastalent@gmail.com.
All net proceeds go to the Orcas Island Prevention Coalition.
