PULSE Alive is a large-scale performing arts event, celebrating talented students from NSW public schools in Greater Sydney and beyond. It provides high quality opportunities in music, dance, drama, visual arts and public speaking to students from all over the state.
PULSE Alive 2021 will be held on Monday 13 September at Ken Rosewall Arena, Sydney Olympic Park.
We are seeking two secondary and two primary students to act as comperes for PULSE Alive 2021. Students will be mentored during the day by a professional MC and supported through their involvement in the event.
Successful students will need to be available for a mentoring and rehearsal day on Saturday 4 September, a venue rehearsal on the evening of Sunday 12 September and all day and evening on Monday 13 September for the final rehearsals and performance of PULSE Alive.
To audition, we are asking students to film themselves saying the following text, upload the video to YouTube (as an unlisted link) and submit using this nomination form. The text we would like the students to say is:
"Ladies and Gentlemen, Welcome to PULSE Alive 2021, a celebration of excellence in the performing arts. PULSE Alive provides an important opportunity for students and teachers from NSW Public Schools to work together to showcase the performing arts. This evening is the culmination of many months of planning, rehearsals and hard work by our students and staff. Thank you to the teachers, principals, parents and family members who continue to support these ensembles and events and PULSE Alive in particular. Your support is vital and truly appreciated by all of the students performing in tonight's concert."
