A showcase of online conference attendees’ talents in a fun, interactive, virtual talent show!
Talents can be more “traditional,” such as singing, playing a musical instrument, dancing, magic tricks, juggling, or they might be more unusual, such as talking backwards, ear/eyebrow wiggling, joke-telling, double-jointedness, demonstrating a “lifehack” – anything (G-rated) goes!
Participants are asked to sign up ahead of time, and attendees will vote on things like “best in show,” “most unusual talent,” “funniest talent,” and the like. Although the event will be “emceed” in English, talents could be performed in other languages or be non-verbal.
