Aspire To Stardom Lines Up Impressive Judges, Talent Scouts
April 1, 2011
Clarksville, TN – After a very successful first year, Aspire to Stardom is back with another talent filled show.
After hosting several rounds of auditions in February, the preliminary judges narrowed the 1,100 applicants down to just 42. Safe to say that was a hard decision, but it’s sure to lend itself to a group of extremely talented young people. The talent show is only open to people under the age of 20.
Aspire to Stardom was an event born out of the need to let the youth of the community have their talents be seen and heard. The entire event was free to those auditioning; there is no charge to audition or perform at the festival which makes it an even more appealing platform for people who want to get their talents heard. This year the show will be Friday, April 15th from 5:00pm to 9:30pm on the Fun Zone Stage at the Rivers and Spires Festival, Downtown Clarksville. [Read more]
