ENTRY GUIDELINES:

  • Students must attend Jefferson Elementary and currently be in grades K-5th.

  • Performance needs to be no longer than 3 minutes in length.

  • All performers must submit their own MP3 music edited to 3 min if needed and bring their own instrument (with the exception of piano, which is provided)

  • All students must be registered with signed waivers

  • Jefferson’s Got Talent reserves the right to disallow any act or costume that does not fit into a family friendly atmosphere.

  • There will be rehearsals directly after school and one Tech/Dress. Please make as many as you can

  • Mandatory Tech/ Dress Rehearsal will take place at Jefferson Cafeteria and Final Performance at Redondo Union.

  • This is a supportive & fun environment. Kids thrive off peer encouragement. There are no judges (parents included) so always think of a compliment or something nice to say for rehearsals and show.

SHOW GUIDELINES:

  • Mandatory call time 1 hour before showtime.

  • Students are responsible for their own costume, hair, make-up, instruments, sheet music and any props you may need.

  • All performance items must be approved prior to the show.

  • No throwing items off stage

  • No confetti poppers, streamers or anything else that will make the stage a mess.

  • Out of respect for all the performers, we ask that you stay the entire show. The kids at the end of the program deserve the same support as those in the beginning.

  • We know this show is long and kids can get restless, but outside of bathroom breaks, students must remain seated the entire program. We will have volunteers to help manage this, but it is also your responsibility to make sure your child is behaving in a respectful manner for all the performances.

  • Redondo Union provides provides a wonderful stage, lights, and microphones.

  • This is a large theater big enough to invite parents, grandparents, family, friends, and the entire community so feel free to spread the word

  • Cheering, clapping, movin’ & groovin’ is encouraged.

MUSIC SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

  • For his 5th and final year, Nate Gibson aka DJ Earl-E, will be our DJ and MC for the show

  • Nate will be managing all music submissions. The sooner you can provide him with the exact music file you will be using the better. Many times files will need to be formatted.

  • Preferred File Type: MP3 on thumb drive or emailed file (YouTube/Spotify links can be hard to format)
