Performers wanted for Concord Coalition to End Homelessness all talent show

CONCORD – The Concord Coalition to End Homelessness will shine a spotlight on Concord-area performers dreaming of showcasing a special talent this fall.

CCEH is recruiting performers of all types to participate in its first-ever talent show in October.

The fundraising event will showcase a variety of talents through a round of live auditions and the final show Oct. 5, on the Capitol Center for the Arts’ newly renovated Bank of New Hampshire Stage. The public is invited to the auditions and final show.

Individuals interested in competing should visit concordhomeless.org/talentshow to view complete contest information and submit an application by April 1. Entries will be screened in March, with the selected contestants invited to perform at a live audition in May or June at either Area 23 or Lithermans in Concord. Auditioning performers will advance to the talent show based partially on the number of audience votes they received.  

Approximately 10 acts will compete in the Oct. 5 Talent Show, where Judges' Choice and a People's Choice winners will be selected.

Talent Show Chair and CCEH Board Member Greg Lessard called the talent show, “A very exciting new fundraiser for CCEH that promises to be a memorable event for Concord. The evening will be themed after Barnum and Bailey’s 'Greatest Show on Earth,' and we’re thrilled to offer this event at the new Bank of New Hampshire Stage.” 

The evening will include fundraising activities and food service provided by the theater’s Main Street neighbors Concord Food Co-op and O’s Steak and Seafood.
