Swindon Talent 09

THE hunt is on for the most talented people in Swindon - so make sure you get involved.

Swindon Talent 09, run by the Adver, Swindon 105.5 and Swindon Arts Centre, will give the town's top entertainers a chance to show off what they can do at a number of heats throughout the summer.

The heats are:
Purton Carnival on Friday, June 5
Old Town Festival on Sunday, June 28
Caribbean Carnival on Saturday, July 11.
Open mic session at Commonweal School on Thursday, July 16, from 4.30pm

If you want to enter, DOWNLOAD THE APPLICATION FORM HERE: talent09.pdf.

Print it out, fill it in and send it to the organiser of the heat you wish to enter - addresses are on the form.

If you want to take part in the open mic session, you just need to turn up on the day and perform your five-minute routine before the panel of judges.

The best acts from each of the four rounds will go forward to the finals night at the Swindon Arts Centre on Saturday, August 8.

There is no age limit to performers, but entrants must not earn a living from the entertainment business, and organisers can refuse entry if the performance has health and safety issues. Normal Newsquest rules apply.
