Do you have a unique talent you’ve been dying to share with the world? OR, do you have a popular talent that you can do really, really well? OR, can you juggle six Autobots on stage while dressed up as Sparkplug Whitwhicky (TV version, not the movie!) and whistle the the theme song to The Transformers the whole time?

You get the picture.

As part of Anime Festival Orlando’s Skies of Orlandia theme at this year’s convention, Wasabi Anime will be presenting Orlandia’s Got Talent. Based on the popular television show with a similar name, OGT will give attendees and cosplayers at this year’s AFO the chance to compete for fun and prizes. Here’s the details:

PRE-JUDGING: Friday from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM in The Workshop Room.

THE SHOW: Friday at 8:00 PM in Main Events.

PRIZES: The winner walks away with $150 in cash and a hardcover copy of Cosplay in America.

Pre-judging takes place the afternoon of the competition/show. You MUST be at the pre-judging to qualify to perform that night in the main show.

Depending on the number of entrants, not everyone who auditions will be allowed to perform.

Here are more rules and details!
