Local Singing
Competitions are Just a Talent Show Away
Singers and Contests - Singing in a Local
Talent Show
I remember my high school talent show
like it was yesterday. I was scared stiff. Although I had
some talent, I had never performed before. You see, I loved
to play harmonica, but I was never serious about playing in
front of other people.
I had been working on it for about
four years, and I had learned some pretty tricky tunes, but
I couldn't quite take it out in front of a crowd yet.
Nonetheless, one of my friends pressured me into entering
the school talent show.
It's a good thing he did because it
was one of my crowning moments of glory. It gave me the
confidence to seek out opportunities to perform in the rest
of my life. It was really a profoundly moving and changing
experience.
That is why I have done so much to try
to convince my daughter to enter the children's talent show.
While I was a nervous, awkward kid, she is a veritable
social butterfly. I know that underneath her bravado and
apparent self-confidence lie deep insecurities, but
nonetheless that bravado can get her places.
She is practically ready to book a
show – she is that good. She is one of the funniest
kids I have ever met, and adults and children alike love to
hear her standup routines. Nonetheless, she refuses to share
her funny talent show skills with anyone but a few close
friends, and of course her family. She is just too nervous
to quite take it on stage.

This is why I have been booking a show
for her – to show her how good she is. Of course, it is
not a real show. Instead, it is an opportunity to perform in
front of her family at one of our get-togethers.
She loves doing this, and I'm quite
sure that she will be happy to do it. The difference is that
instead of informally getting up in front of everyone, She
will be standing up on a makeshift stage.
This will help her see a little but
more of what it is like to participate in real talent shows
or a casting call. It might seem like a trivial distinction,
but to her the stage is scary.
Having a stage in front of her family,
however, will seem like just a game to her. After she gets
up and performs her routine in front of us, I am hoping that
she has the confidence to try out for the school talent
show.
With that said, if you feel you or
your child has musical, singing or other types of talent
then local competitions might be just the boost they (or
you) need to get going.
