Centerstage@14
T
he 14th annual PYP Talent Show Centerstage on October 25th, 2024, was an unforgettable celebration of talent, creativity, and growth. Each year, the event continues to raise the bar, with students leveling up their acts in every possible way. 135 students participated in the audition which received 62 entries overall. Out of these 62 entries, only 24 made it to the finals. From confident student Masters of Ceremonies to breathtaking piano performances, powerful vocal solos, energetic drum beats and impressive dance routines, the talent on display was nothing short of spectacular. Musical performances, dynamic and vibrant band groups added depth and variety, showcasing the diverse skills of our young student performers.
Even the Surprise Number where teachers and TAs took to the stage with a fun, coordinated cell phone flashlight dance number Toca Toca had the audience cheering and applauding.
