America’s Got Adequacy - The Running Start

Published by theadequate under Magic Edit This

I now know that I’ll be auditioning for AGT at the  Greater Tacoma Convention & Trade Center some time on the 25th or 26th of April (Times TBD).  My friend Steve Taylor’s got some inside information for me, based on a colleague’s experiences:

  • No, you won’t be auditioning for Piers, Mrs. Osborne and the Hoff straight off.  Expect 3 or 4 levels of auditioning with production assistants, interns etc.
  • The official web site says “you may have up to 90 seconds to audition”. Woah. 90 seconds is really short when you’re a magician
  • They’re looking for the really good, the really bad and the really unusual. I’m pretty sure I fit into one of those categories
  • Your posted time may have no relation to your actual audition time. Pack a lunch. Bring a book.

More as this proceeds. I should get an a scheduled time some time this week. I hope.

One response so far
