Banquet Talent Show/ Student Speaker Auditions!

May 15, 2008 at 10:29 am by Ryan Lombardini

We are looking for talented acts to perform at this year’s banquet!  If you have a short solo, duet, or group act- we encourage you to audition!  Past acts have included a cappella groups, instrumental performances, dance routines, unique abilities or skills (i.e. solving a rubik’s cube in less than a minute!), and short skits/plays.  These are just a few ideas…so be creative!  We welcome all types of talent.

 

This will be our second year to feature Senior Student Speaker–think Commencement ceremony speech, but for a CHP audience.  There are no official guidelines for speech criteria, although keep in mind that there is no campus-wide Honors Convocation ceremony anymore and we are looking to fill that gap with some additional honoraries for graduating CHP seniors at our own banquet.

 

*Please limit your speech to 3-5 minutes in length

*Please bring 3 printed copies of your speech to your audition

*Must be a graduating senior

*Must be a CHP student

 

For both the speaker & talent show portions, sign up for an audition time with social chair Sarah Barber!

 

Email Sarah at:  sbarber@uci.edu

Audition Dates:  (Week 8 ) Wednesday, May 21 and Thursday, May 22

Time:  May 21:  6:00-7:00 p.m.

May 22:  2:00-4:00 p.m.

Location:  The Locus

Reserve your Spot!  We will take drop-ins, but to guarantee a specific audition time, you must email Sarah by Monday, May 19th.

 

*If you or your group cannot make this date & time, please contact Sarah to make alternate arrangements.
