For four years, Eldorado has held an annual Talent No Talent Show. Unlike a traditional talent show, this inclusive show allows students that feel as if they have no conventional talents to perform. Both students and teachers are welcomed to perform on stage. Each performer has their own act, varying from karaoke, dancing, poetry, and playing instruments. On March 8, this year’s show was held in the New Theater at 6:30pm. For those who were unable to go in person can watch the livestream at anytime. The broadcast is available on the Eldorado’s sports streaming website. It is accessible through the school’s main website. At the end of the show the top three best performances were chosen. Antonio Atkielski, 11, won first place, and a cash prize of $60 for his talent, he recited a poem. This was his second year performing; last year he had won second place. Star Greenwood, 9, and Lavonn Beal, 12, took second and third place respectively. Both took home a $40 prize. Antonio said as he performs he starts off “nervous, but then you get use to it so it's not that big of a deal.” Unlike Antonio, this was the first year Lavonn performed in the show, he said “I was nervous and I didn’t think I would win anything, but I was really proud.” For Star Greenwood, the experience was nerve racking, but amazing. She says, “I’ll definitely be performing next year.” For those who are still unconvinced on watching the Talent No Talent Show, Mr. Rendon and Ms. Carranza perform their annual duet. This year, they performed the song “Time of My Life” by Bill Medley and Jennifer Warnes. Though this year’s show has passed, the broadcast is still available online. Students are more than welcomed to come to next year’s show. Whether it is to be an audience member or as a performer at any skill level, the Talent No Talent Show welcomes everyone.
