Everyone has a talent, and we're not talking about solving complex equations or fundraising for a study trip. No, we mean that special talent you can showcase for everyone to enjoy! This is your chance to shine in the very first and only Students Got Talent show at TU/e! Whether it's a hidden talent or something you've been perfecting for years, this is your moment to take the spotlight!
What is Students Got Talent?
Students Got Talent provides a stage for students to showcase their talents. Get ready for an evening full of surprising, moving, spectacular and unique performances, inspired by the famous talent shows you know from tv. From singing and dancing to acrobatics and comedy - every act offers something special.
(Almost) Anything Goes
Not sure if your performance is the right fit for the show? Don't worry – on our stage, almost anything goes! Here are some ideas to spark your creativity:
- Dance: breakdance, ballet, line dancing, Lindy hop, belly dancing, or synchronized swimming (in a dry run, of course).
- Performance art: stand-up comedy, mime, magic tricks, impersonations, speed painting, or an act with your pet (a rat or a snake perhaps).
- Sports & stunts: pole dancing, aerial silks, aerial hoop, soccer tricks, juggling, slacklining, jump- rope freestyle, acrobatics, contortionism or sword techniques.
- Music & poetry: Singing, rapping, playing an instrument, choral singing, or poetry recitation.
As we said, (Almost) Anything Goes!
