Performing arts company JKT MOVEMENT OF INSPIRATION (JKTMoveIn) will hold the competition JAKARTA SHOW OFF, on Saturday, July 13th, 2019, at CIPUTRA ARTPRENEUR, Jakarta. Finalists from band, dance, and show choir categories will compete for monetary prizes totaling IDR 80.000.000 as well as a featured role in JKTMoveIn's upcoming production.
All finalists performing were chosen after an online audition taking place last May; for dance and show choir, the groups are further split into kids and youth categories based on age.
On the day of the event, band finalists will perform first at 12.00, followed by dance finalists at 16.00 and show choir at 18.00. The results will be announced at the end of the night, following a special performance by JKTMoveIn. Throughout the day, JKTMoveIn will also hold a walk-in audition for actors looking to be in their next production (title yet to be announced) at the venue's foyer area.
Here's the list of finalists competing at JAKARTA SHOW OFF:
BAND
DANCE - Kids
DANCE - Youth
SHOW CHOIR - Kids
SHOW CHOIR - Youth
JKTMoveIn's strategy of holding JAKARTA SHOW OFF as the pre-event to build up hype for the 2019 musical production exemplifies a well planned marketing campaign; multi-category performing arts competitions (and especially for show choirs) are still rare in Jakarta, setting JAKARTA SHOW OFF apart from the get go.
More information, including how to purchase ticket to the event, is available on Instagram, @jktmovein. Those looking to join the walk-in audition are also required to purchase a ticket.
