International Talent Agency Seeking Talent
- International ARTS Talent Showcase auditions are underway.
Every year the International ARTS Talent
Showcase (IATS) helps local entertainers in various faculties (singing,
dancing, acting and modelling) realise their dreams. It gives youngsters a
platform to showcase their talent locally, as well as the opportunity to travel
abroad and the chance at international education.
This is not a competition. It’s a platform
– its primary focus is on arts education – which allows longevity in the
marketplace.
The Applause Rising Talent Showcase (ARTS)
is a family-owned and operated organisation, founded by international talent
scout Kim Meyers. IATS is the South African leg of the ARTS, held annually in
Orlando, Florida. It is run by Elsubie Verlinden, founder of Just You Model and
Artist Management.
In her capacity as Regional Director for
ARTS in Africa, Verlinden has provided countless young South Africans exposure
to top educational outlets in the USA.
Additionally, Just You Model and Artist
Management will open their international offices on February 1, 2018, in New
York City, once again providing locals the opportunity to secure international
contracts.
Growing up, Verlinden was stunned by the
lack of international opportunities for people seeking a career in the arts.
So, she took matters into her own hands and teamed up with Kim Meyers to bring
the showcase to the African continent. Each year the Showcase has grown to
offer bigger and better opportunities. Last year afforded participants the
opportunity to audition in front of international talent scout Rhavynn Drummer.
Verlinden will once again be travelling
from city to city throughout South Africa to scout the best talent the country
has to offer to attend the International ARTS Talent Showcase.
Auditions are currently underway, and Just
You will visit KZN on the following dates:
February 3, 2018: The Playhouse, Durban
February 4, 2018: The Richards Hotel, Richards
Bay
