April 1, 2008 – On Friday, April 4, Duanesburg Central School District will host its annual Talent Show at 6:30 p.m. in the middle/high school gym. This exciting event will include more than 20 acts featuring students in kindergarten through twelfth grade showing off their talents singing, dancing, juggling, playing musical instruments and much more.   

Tickets are $4 for general admission, $3 for senior citizens and children under school age are free. All are welcome! 

Proceeds from the event will benefit the Select Choir to help fund their upcoming field trip to New York City where they will participate in a two-hour workshop with Broadway performers, eat lunch at the Hard Rock Café and attend the Broadway play, Mary Poppins.

Prior to the performance, students will meet with the actors in-person, ask questions and find out what it takes to reach this performance level. 

“The students are able to see the performer as a real person and then later see him transformed into his character on stage,” said music teacher Mira Ordon. “It is amazing to watch the reaction of students as they see this caliber performance. I have taken a number of students on this trip and it is inspirational.”
