This Saturday, Lewisham is holding the semi finals of its very own contest to find the most talented people in the borough.
Initial registration and auditions took place in mid-July and now 20 acts, including singers, dancers and musicians, will compete for 10 places in the final.
The semi finals are being held this Saturday 2 August between 1-3pm at Lewisham Shopping Centre.
Among those judges on the panel will be Deputy Mayor of Lewisham, Heidi Alexander. Among the judges at the final will be rapper, Ty, one of the UK’s true musical innovators and who gave a mesmerising performance at this year’s Lewisham People’s Day.
The winner of the overall competition will receive:
- Gift vouchers worth £300
- The opportunity to perform at the Lewisham Country Fayre on 14 September
- Two days in a recording studio.
The event is organised in partnership between Lewisham Council and Lewisham Shopping Centre.
