We all know that the IRI is cool off-season
FIRST Roboitcs Compeititon that happens to take place before and after an AWESOME TALENT SHOW.
Since 2004, many talented acts have graced the stage at the IRI Talent Show...
an
Exploding Bacon member singing about Starbucks Latte Boys
Killer Bees rocking out
TechnoKats banging with Maxwell's Hammer
and even some interesting
dance displays.
There is even a competition, with a distinguished panel of judges. One year, a flutist won, while another year a banjo player took home the title. Can this year's crop of talent measure up to the fabulous acts we have seen in the past? I think so.
The 2009 IRI Talent Show will once again be held in the auditorium at Lawrence North High School, and begin at 7:00pm on July 31.
If you have a unique skill, skit or talent that you think is worthy for the IRI Talent Show, please
email me with this information by July 24th:
- Outline of your act, with a script or lyrics or detailed description
- Any technical needs your act requires (microphone, etc.)
- Number of people in your act
A committee will review your act outline. All acts must be "family friendly" and not inappropriate. All acts must perform during a try-out time, beginning at 1:00pm in the auditorium. All acts must send
me an email with their outline and needs information as listed above. Acts are subject to approval. All acts must be 6 minutes long or less.
Please use this thread to ask questions, make requests, or post your favorite memories from past IRI talent shows.
Also, after the talent show is completed, we all get to
rock and roll with the boys from
Dean Simmons and the Kamen Brothers.
Thanks,
Andy Baker
