Performances must be no longer than 2.5 minutes. Everyone will receive a ‘certificate’ for participating. Any music or backing track needs to be pre-recorded (iphone or android can be plugged into sound system). Any equipment (tables, mats etc) need to be brought with you. Sign up sheet in the Porch.
More details will be provided at the end of August.
