Retail Trust Search For A Star

15/07/2009

Retail Trust Search For A Star is a nationwide campaign to find retail’s most popular act. We’re searching for singers, dancers, bands, comedians, variety acts and other talents and we need you!

If we think you’ve got what it takes, we’ll invite you to the Auditions Roadshows in London or Manchester in September and October where you’ll perform live in front of our panel of judges and be cheered on by the viewing public. Then the top 50 acts will face the public vote online - this is where you get yourself on Facebook and tell the world what you’re doing. We’ll give you hints and tips to help you promote yourself along the way.

The final four acts will have an all expenses paid trip to London, be styled by celebrity guru Mark Heyes of GMTV, experience the luxury of an overnight stay at the 5* Grosvenor House Hotel, and have their performance streamed live across the web for millions of people to see!

The act with the most votes will be crowned Retail Trust Search For A Star Winner and win the grand prize - a case of Selfridge’s champagne, the chance to perform live at all BAA airports and a whole host of other prizes that are yet to be announced.

So if you think you have what it takes to become a star, get your hairbrush out, your leg warmers on, dust off those spinning plates…whatever your talent …and get practising.

You can follow us on Facebook, YouTube and on the #RTS tar tag on twitter.
