Kinsmen Telemiracle is looking for Saskatchewan singers, dancers, bands and entertainers to audition for a chance to perform on Telemiracle 40, to be held March 5 and 6, 2016 in Regina, and broadcast live on CTV.
“Audition weekend is such an exciting time for us,” said Jody Diakow, the Kinsmen Foundation’s executive director. “We continue to be impressed every year at the incredible talent from across the province.
“Between Saskatoon and Regina, our producers watch over 200 performances on the audition weekend. They always have a tough job to narrow that down to around 50 that will ultimately be on the show.”
While talent is one part of the criteria, a passion for Telemiracle, the desire to help others, and a geographic balance among performers are other factors involved in the selection of entertainers that will be on the show.
“Telemiracle is a coming together of the Saskatchewan community to raise funds for people with special needs,” said producer Ian Roach. “This year, Telemiracle 40 represents a milestone for the telethon. Our Saskatchewan performers have always been a significant part of the show and we look to celebrate this anniversary in every corner of the province.”
Anyone interested in auditioning for Telemiracle must apply to the Kinsmen Telemiracle office to be registered. Auditions will be held on Nov. 7 in Regina and Nov. 8 in Saskatoon.
Numerous performers from the Estevan area
have showcased their skills during Telemiracle in recent years.
