Auditions are now being held for the Spectacular Variety Show to be held Saturday, Dec. 28 and Sunday, Dec. 29 at the Oakville Centre for the Performing Arts. It's a chance to be a star, if you can sing, dance, are a magician, storyteller, musician, actor, comedian or have some other specialty act -- and are 50 years old or older. Auditions will be held in early June as per a schedule yet to be compiled. "The talent in our community is over flowing and you have a show that is as unique as the performers themselves," said show producer Kathy Carlin. This is the fifth year for Oakville's pre mier showcase for performers 50-plus. The theme for this year's show is That' s Life and it promises to be bigger and better than ever, guaranteeing great entertainment for the entire family.
