Wednesday, May 22, 2019 The Nugget Newspaper, Sisters, Oregon Talent show auditions begin Got talent? Sisters Sunday Showcase wants you. <People in our commu- nity have so many talents, but often don9t have an opportu- nity to share them beyond the walls of their own homes,= said Jennie Sharp. Her theater camp, Starshine, will present a classic talent show on Sunday, June 16 at Sisters Farmers Market. Jokes, dance, and music are among the possible acts folks might decide to share at the Sisters Sunday Showcase tal- ent show. Auditions take place via video and are due June 1. Dads, kids, and people of all ages are invited to partici- pate free of charge in this spe- cial Father9s Day show. <A public talent show can empower kids and adults,= said Sharp. <Everyone has something fun to offer.= Starshine will also present an hour-long workshop just for kids earlier that day, to prepare something special for dads and other marketgoers. <We9ll jump right into pro- ducing a mini-performance that will open the talent show later that afternoon,= said Sharp. Sharp is experienced with helping kids develop their own shows from the ground up. Workshop participants will <use their extremely creative minds to come up with some- thing silly, fun, and maybe informative, too!= No experi- ence is necessary. Sharp has been putting on shows since she was a child. She went on to act, sing, and dance in many performances, in lead and support roles4and teach in a variety of settings. She studied art and forestry at University of California at Berkeley, and education at the University of San Diego and Portland State University. She is excited to work on the Fir Street Park stage for the first time. <The bandshell stage is such a beautiful venue for the Sisters Farmers Market,= Sharp observed. <The bright colors and fun people attend- ing the farmers market pro- vide great ambiance to show- case the community9s talents in farming, crafting, and otherwise.= To pre-register for the workshop, go to www. starshine-theater.com and click <Sunday Showcase.= A dona- tion of $5-$10 is requested. Proceeds benefit the nonprofit Sisters Farmers Market. If there is still room avail- able on the day of the work- shop, no one will be turned away for lack of funds. For the talent show audi- tion, participants need to send in a 1- to 5-minute video of themselves performing their act. <The talent could be any- thing from juggling to music, dance, acting, poetry, you name it,= Sharp explained. Videos should be texted directly to Jennie Sharp at 541-645-0688. She said, <The video doesn9t need to be high qual- ity, just enough for us to get a sense of what you9ll bring to the talent show.= Starshine requests that all submissions are polished pieces ready to perform, since there will be no rehearsal. The Fir Street Park stage has a con- crete floor and will be outfit- ted with two microphones and a PA/speaker system, donated by Rich Hummel. Sharp plans to direct sev- eral more shows on the band- shell stage this summer: the August 25 Sunday Showcase at Sisters Farmers Market, and three plays performed by her summer camp students. Summer camp registration will be available via SPRD beginning May 16. The Sunday Showcase at Sisters Farmers Market is funded in part by a grant from The Roundhouse Foundation.
