Your Company’s Got Talent – a fun interactive night’s entertainment built around a typical TV talent show in the style of Australia’s Got Talent or Australian Idol. Throughout the evening, six predetermined ‘talent acts’ chosen from amongst the attendees have to perform their act in front of the other audience members and be judged with the assistance of a pair of very funny MCs. All the performances e.g. best air guitar solo, singing a section of karaoke, joining in a set dance routine etc. are impromptu, guided by the MCs and require no rehearsal.

A fun, entertaining staff social event, it incorporates team building with the capacity to raise money for your charity of choice. The events are tailored to each company and involve multiple tables of staff from different departments competing against one or two tables of senior management (Bosses). The team with the most points at the end of the night is the ultimate winner.
