/24-7PressRelease/ - MADISON, WI, April 18, 2008 - SECOND ANNUAL MUSIC THEATRE IDOL COMPETITION - JUNE 10, 2008
Music Theatre of Madison, a professional theatre embarking on its third season, will host its second annual "Music Theatre Idol" competition on June 10, 2008 at The West Side Club, 437 Cty Hwy M. in Madison. The contest is open to the public and singers ages 15 and up may enter. Tickets are $8 for audience members and $12 for contestants. A cash bar serving alcoholic and non alcoholic beverages will be available. The evening is sponsored by Van Wagner and Wood and Orange Tree Imports.
Based on the popular television show, Music Theatre Idol serves as a fundraiser for Music Theatre of Madison's upcoming summer season. The preliminary round, closed to the public, will begin at 6:00pm. Singers who wish to enter must sing a short musical theatre song a capella for the judges. After hearing all the singers, the judges will narrow the contestants down to the top ten. At 7:00pm, the doors open to the public, who will watch the top ten perform and vote to narrow the selection to the top three. The top three will perform a final time, and the audience will vote for the winner. The top ten and top three contestants will choose their performance pieces from a list of pre selected songs, available on the theatre's website. All participants will receive prizes donated by local businesses.
According to artistic director Meghan Randolph, the contest "is meant to be an evening of fun, laughter and applause. We want everyone to feel like a superstar because we are so grateful to everyone who helps us promote our season. Plus, we like to give opportunities to people who just love to get up and sing!"
Singers may enter online at http://www.musictheatreofmadison.com. Tickets for audience members will be sold at the door. The evening will be hosted by Music Theatre of Madison founder Meghan Randolph and judged by three local singers, who are, according to Randolph "nowhere near as mean but just as crazy as Simon, Paula, and Randy!"
