Jersey Talent, the hottest talent show in New Jersey for ages 8-25, returns for its third year! “Jersey Talent was created to provide a platform for youth to express themselves through art in a safe environment before a supportive audience of friends, family, and community,” said Sarah Chaplin, State Theatre New Jersey President & CEO. “There are so many talented kids in our region who are looking for an outlet, a place to perform outside their schools, and we wanted to provide that outlet with Jersey Talent.” After video and live auditions, 10 acts were selected. Our four judges from the New Brunswick community will select the top three and then crown the winner. The winner earns a spot as a featured performer at the New Brunswick Heart Festival on August 8. We hope you enjoy the third annual Jersey Talent!
