A chance to shine at hit talent show auditions
The nation’s favourite talent show is hitting the road again in its search to find talented acts for its brand new series and Blairgowrie residents are being invited to audition.
This year, the team from hit television show Britain’s Got Talent is coming to Glasgow where they hope to come across some talented acts.
So if you think you’ve got a talent which can impress and entertain, now is the time to show them what you’ve got.
The team will be at the Scottish Exhibition Centre in Glasgow this Sunday, November 12, and are looking for talented folk from across the country.
Successful acts chosen on the day will be in with a chance of securing a place at one of the judges’ auditions in 2018.
People can show up on the day from 11am to 6pm or if you can’t attend the Glasgow auditions you can apply by video online by going towww.itv.com/ britains got talent.
The show is open to any performer of any age, with any talent - all you need is a skill and star quality which you think will impress.
Anything goes from magicians to comedians, drag acts to singers and acrobats to animals.
Series producer Charlie Irwin said: “Britain’s Got Talent 2017 was a fantastic year for talent full of variety - from runner-up Issy Simpson, the youngest magician to audition, to the moving and inspiring Missing People Choir, lovable duo The Pensionalities and our incredible winner Tokio Myers.
“We can’t wait to see what talent your town has to offer for the 2018 series.
“Anyone can apply - there is no age limit and we are looking for all kinds of talents.
“So if you feel you have something special to show us, no matter what it is, then make sure you come along, you never know where it might take you.”
Since being crowned the winner of Britain’s Got Talent 2017, Tokio Myers has co- produced the Artists for Grenfell charity single in support of The London Community Foundation and is currently in the studio working on his debut album, which is due to be released later this year.
BGT’s 10th winner Lance Corporal Richard Jones, the first magician to win the show, has been touring the country with his sold-out UK tour Power of Imagination.
Since his win, Richard has also headlined a West End show, Impossible, as well as returning to TV with his one-off prime-time television special, Operation Magic.
Among the show’s successes, Susan Boyle has sold more than 23 million records worldwide, Diversity have sold-out six nationwide tours and just completed their seventh UK tour Genesis, while multi-platinum selling artist Paul Potts has sold six million records worldwide.
