Last Live Audition for 2010 TAKE THE STAGE Talent Competition Held 5/8

Guntersville, Alabama, April 30, 2010 - The last live audition session for the Whole Backstage Theatre's 2010 TAKE THE STAGE amateur talent competition will be Saturday, May 8th, from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm at the Whole Backstage Theater in Guntersville on Rayburn Avenue. The competition is open to amateur performers of all kinds ages 8 and up from Alabama and surrounding states, and will be presented June 3-6. Talent can be any type of amateur entertainment suitable for a family audience. Entrants can come and audition at any time during the period - no appointment is needed. Microphones and a sound system will be provided; a piano will be available for those who require one. Entry forms will also be available at the audition.

The acts that are selected to compete in the preliminary rounds of TAKE THE STAGE will be scored by a panel of judges which will include representatives of education, business, politics, and the entertainment industry. The top ten scoring acts from the preliminary rounds will advance to the final round of competition, to vie for first, second and third place cash and prizes totaling at least $1,000.

Applicants who wish can instead mail in or deliver a video audition with their form and entry fee, but the deadline for all entries is May 8th. The entry form and contest rules can be downloaded from the Whole Backstage web site - www.wholebackstage.com - or can be picked up at the theater office Mon-Fri between 9:00 am and 1:00 pm.
