The judges for Suburban Chicago's Got Talent are weighing in on which of the 20 finalists should advance to the Top 15.
Now it's your turn.
Online voting is open at dailyherald.com/entertainment/talent/. The contestant with the most online votes is guaranteed a spot in the next round. The ultimate Fan Favorite — determined by all rounds of online voting — wins a Funjet vacation for two.
Now through Sunday, June 29, viewers can vote as well as watch videos of SCGT contestants taken at the Top 20 show held Sunday at the Prairie Center for the Arts in Schaumburg.
The Top 15 finalists will be announced next week. They will perform at the Prairie Center at 7 p.m. Sunday, July 13.
The Fan Favorite and ultimate winner of the summer talent contest will be revealed at the Taste of Arlington Heights on Saturday, Aug. 9. The new grand prize for 2014 is a “STARter Kit,” which consists of a concert performance as an opening act for a headliner at the Arcada Theatre in St. Charles, a professional concert-style photo shoot, a promotional video drawn from live SCGT competition footage and professional talent mentoring.
SCGT is in its third year. The summer-long competition is sponsored by the Daily Herald, the Arlington Heights Chamber of Commerce and the Prairie Center for the Arts. For tickets to shows and more information, call (847) 895-3600 or visit prairiecenter.org or dailyherald.com/events.
