#IdolsSA : The theatre of dreams comes alive!
It was 86 contestants battling it out for 32 coveted spots that were up for grabs.
Theatre Week was fast turning into a theatre of dreams coming alive and some dreams shattering before hopefuls’ eyes.
The contestants had a playlist of 10 songs to choose from. This is what many could call a professional audition with a pianist accompanying the contestants for the first time in the history of the competition.
Song choices stressed the candidates, and many of them weren’t sure if they had made the right song choice. Some had chosen songs they didn’t even know. It wasn’t long until the Theatre Week axe started falling on many of the aspirants as the cut to be part of the 32 continued. It was the end of the road for many of them. After day one, there were 54 survivors.
