WinterPLAY 2017 Talent Show

One Direction, Miranda Lambert, Pentatonix, Usher and Beyoncé.  What do they have in common?  They were all discovered in singing competitions.

If you’ve got a secret (or even not-so-secret) talent, there is a local opportunity for  you to shine: WinterPLAY 2017!

The talent competition at WinterPLAY is open to residents of all ages and all talents.  That means we’re looking for singers, dancers, comedians, actors, baton twirlers, magicians, fire eaters, and karate choppers!  Come show us what you’ve got and you could potentially win one of three prizes provided by Peter Pond Mall (first prize is a $1,000 Peter Pond Mall gift card).

Taking place Saturday, February 25 in the WinterSHOWCASE tent (which is a giant, inflatable igloo), performers will show off their talents in front of an audience and a community selection panel.  The judges will determine which acts will move forward to the finals, which take place on Sunday, February 26.

Be sure to register your performance by February 13.  You can register HERE.  If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Alanna at 780-792-5968.

January 2012 Full Moon Café Review

During this past weekends’ Full Moon Café, the drum circle set the ambiance for the evening. All in attendance were treated to musical numbers and poetry recitals. Cover songs were sung that engaged the audience to sing along. Original songs were played which warmed and moved people. Recitals of some of Shakespeare’s soliloquies and “The Cremation of Sam McGee” brought delight to all. There were guitars, ukuleles, and harmonicas played to make the toe tapping songs come alive. As a special treat, one member from the cast of “Chicago” who was in attendance performed one of her musical acts. She received a standing ovation for the beautiful execution of the number. Overall the café was a delight to experience. The next Full Moon Café will be on February 18 at the Waterways Hall. The drum circle starts at 7:30 pm and the entertainment begins at 8:00 pm. There is a $5.00 donation at the door. This is a great way to see some amazing talent that the Regional Municipality of Wood Buffalo has to offer, meet new friends and enjoy some Chai tea, coffee and snacks.
