Big Break Talent Search Finals - Kingaroy
Here's something different! The Commercial Hotel at the corner of Glendon and Haly Streets in Kingaroy will be hosting the second (and last) round of finals for the new Big Break Talent Search from 8:30pm onwards tonight. During May, Big Break ran three heats of auditions for this competition and then in early June they distilled this down further with two semi-finals, and then a final for soloi acts two weeks ago (won by Olivia Ruth). Tonight will be the finals for duo acts and the winner - as judged by the audience's votes - will walk away with a great prize and bookings to perform at the Com Pub. So if you're barracking for any particular duo act, get along! The Big Break Talent Search is sponsored by Musician's Oasis, Tanglewood Guitars, DJdirex Entertainment and (of course!) The Com Pub Kingaroy. Admission is free if you get in by 10:00pm, otherwise $5 if you're late.
