The Mission Viejo Community of Character Committee is seeking local talent of all types and ages to compete in the 3rd Annual “Mission Viejo’s Got Talent” show in June. Auditions will be held by appointment starting at 6 p.m. on April 27.
The talent competition is a fundraiser for the committee’s Relay for Life “Goin’ Bananas for a Cure” team. Also dubbed “Performance with a Purpose,” this event gives community members an opportunity to take part in the 18th annual Mission Viejo Relay for Life weekend fundraiser that benefits the American Cancer Society.
The semi-finalists will appear at Norman P. Murray Community and Senior Center for a presentation on May 18. A suggested $2 donation is asked of folks who attend. The winner will then be declared on June 3 before closing ceremonies at Relay for Life at Saddleback College.
The competition is open to all ages and has attracted auditions from ages 4 to 80. Last year’s final event dazzled a crowd of more than 300 people who voted for their favorite talent. The “Wildflowers” (Delia and Phoebe Carpenter) took the grand title and bragging rights.
For an application and more information, call Tammy Descoteaux at 949-470-3094 or tdescoteaux@cityofmissionviejo.org.
