“Bands, singers, dancers, comedians, street performers, poets, minstrels and theatre and circus performers are invited to apply for the five public auditions across the Metropole.
“With 11 weeks to go, the 2010 World Cup offers the City a chance to showcase Cape Town’s uniquely diverse talent. The aim is to identify emerging and new artistes from across the Metropole. The City will offer additional professional training to successful candidates,” said Naidoo.
