ABILITY TO PERFORM BEFORE AN AUDITION PANEL OF JUDGES

  • Even the most seasoned pros get a little nervous before a performance. Our experienced judges are here to assess your audition and perhaps offer a few words of constructive advice at their discretion.

ABILITY TO PERFORM BEFORE AN AUDIENCE

  • Looking ahead to show time, you must be able to stand in the spot light and deliver a captivating act.

ABILITY TO PERFORM IN A LIVE ENVIRONMENT

  • The show is presented at the Lionel E. Lalonde Centre in front of a live audience. If you are a successful candidate, we will help you to familiarize yourself with a live audience.

ABILITY TO PERFORM WITH A BAND

  • The Café Heritage house band consists of some very talented musicians from our area. They will perform live during the show with all vocal acts (some exceptions may apply).

UNIQUENESS

  • What sets you apart from every other act in the show? What value can you bring to the production that will be memorable to an audience?

PRODUCER’S NOTES

Here are a few helpful hints to make your performance memorable:

  • Up-tempo, high-energy songs are more impactful than ballads. Generally, they are also easier to perform.
  • Avoid tackling ambitious power ballads if you’re not up to the challenge. Keep it real.
  • You may be chosen to perform in the live show; however, you may have chosen a song that someone else has also selected. It is required to have a second choice in this case (or our panel may suggest something suitable).
  • For the audition process only, vocalists may perform a cappella, to full or karaoke tracks, or with self-contained acoustic accompaniment.
