What’s your talent? Have you always wanted to get out there and be recognized?
Then take advantage of Pacino’s Italian Restaurant’s local Talent Show and you could be the winner of a $4,000 grand prize, announced Pacino’s owner Frank Spaccarelli.
In the past two years, Pacino’s Annual Talent Show focused solely on singers. This year the venue is expanding to include anyone with a talent — be it singer, musician, storyteller, magician, or surprise us! “Unfortunately, we don’t have the space for dancing or gymnastics or we would welcome them, too,” Frank said.
Auditions will be on Saturdays, Aug. 7 and 14, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Audition judges will be Pacino’s owner, Frank Spaccarelli, and a local talent booking agent. The shows will begin on Saturday, Aug. 28, at 1 p.m. and continue each Saturday thereafter until the finale, Oct. 2.
During the six-week run of the show, local entertainers will be critiquing the contestants’ performances. Entrants’ success will be decided by the vote of restaurant patrons in attendance that day. Diners get two votes multiplied by the number of contestants. Additional votes can be garnered with purchases.
At the finale, remaining contestants will be chosen by a panel of celebrity judges.
