Statesboro’s Community Theater organization, the Averitt STARS, is holding auditions for the 3rd annual Averitt Star Search.

Organized and created by the local singing sensation, Arnetta Parker, Averitt Star Search is a talent show showcasing the best of our community’s singers, dancers, actors, comedians, poets and more.

For this year’s show, aspiring models between the ages of 16-21 may also audition for the new spokesmodel portion of the show.

Auditions will be held from 1-4 p.m., June 30 at the Averitt Center for the Arts on East Main Street in downtown Statesboro. Participants must be 12 and up. Age categories are as follows: 12-15 years, 16-18 years, and over 18.

Contestants will perform at the Emma Kelly Theater on July 28 at 7:30 p.m. and compete for cash prizes and awards.
