The Isle of Man's Got Talent

by isleofman.com 24th November 2011

TALENTED young people from across the Island will be competing for trophies at the Youth Arts Centre in Douglas next month.

 

Twenty acts from youth clubs and projects will be taking part in Youth's Got Talent on Monday, December 5.

 

Head of Youth Arts Fiona Helleur said: "Youth's Got Talent is a talent show arranged for youth club members to have a taste of the limelight in the Youth Arts Centre's own theatre.

 

"Singers, dancers, musicians and magicians are all on stage for a lively, fun and friendly show.

 

"We have lights and sound, music and costumes, make-up and a lot of talent.

 

"It's one of the highlights of the Department of Education and Children Youth Service's calendar and is always a lot of fun."

 

The competition includes dance group Adrenalyn which has been accepted to audition for Britain's Got Talent in Liverpool this Saturday.

 

Its members met at the one of the hip-hop dance clubs at the Youth Arts Centre and have spent years perfecting their skills and steps.

 

Two members, Beth Brown and Amaara Sharpe, went to London's famous Pineapple Dance Studios and attended a workshop with Joey Drum who is one of Justin Bieber's dancers.

 

"The judges will have a very hard job," Fiona added.

 

Tickets cost £2 and are available from youth club members and from the Youth Arts Centre in Kensington Road, Douglas. For more information, contact Fiona on 437339.
