INTERNATIONAL COMPETITION
SITES
Artslynx is very discriminating in this
listing. Only the major INTERNATIONAL competitions are listed here. Most
include International Theatre Commission (of UNESCO) sanction.
Commercially oriented competitions are listed at the bottom of the page.
"Star Search" Style
Competitions . . .sigh
Editorial comment: Warning! The dancing MAY be
great but the forced online soundtracks will drive you bonkers!
Furthermore Artslynx only lists the following while holding his
nose! These may or may not be legit, and fun....but despite what their
names imply, contests do not "make stars"! Consider the pinnacle
of stardom in the arts: Shakespeare, Moliere, The "real" actors
Barrymore (and even Drew), Nureyev, Pavlova, Petipa, Merce Cunningham,
Lionide Massine, Picasso, Rembrendt Chaplin. Did THEY have to
enter contests with such names as "we'll make you a star?". Hint number
2: "Agents" don't make stars either.
