If you are 60 years old or up, it’s not too late to take your shot at the spotlight (and the chance to win $1,000).
Although in-person auditions wrapped up this week for the 6th Annual Morning Pointe Foundation Seniors Got Talent show in Chattanooga, online auditions are being accepted through June 20—offering one more chance for local seniors to wow the judges and earn a spot in the big show. Seniors Got Talent Chattanooga will take place Thursday, July 31, at 7 p.m. at the Silverdale Center Creekside Theatre at 7236 Bonny Oaks Drive.
With a $1,000 grand prize and a full house of cheering fans at stake, seniors 60 and older across the Tennessee Valley are encouraged to submit a video showcasing their talent. Whether you sing, dance, play an instrument, or tell a few good jokes—this is your time to shine.
“This show is about celebrating the incredible, ageless talent in our community,” said Miranda Perez, executive director of the Morning Pointe Foundation. “We’ve already seen some amazing performers in person and online—but we know there are more stars out there. If you missed auditions last week, we’d still love to see your video.”
