The final of the ISM's Got Talent on Upper Campus was a spectacle of sensational singing, incredible instrument playing, magnificent magic and dazzling dancing.
On the 3rd of February, the ISM community was treated to a fantastic feast of entertainment as each class settled down to watch the highly anticipated final of our annual talent show. With performances from students across all classes, there was a wide array of different talents on display. After the audition process, which was fierce and highly competitive, fifteen talented students were selected to perform on the main stage in the grand final.
When the day of the final arrived, all the finalists were amazed to see the spectacular stage that had been built for the occasion – a big thank you to Mrs Tolokonnikova for her support with this. After an engaging introduction from Mr Storey, our three student hosts, Nadya, Leo and Charlotte, declared the show had begun. Each finalist showcased their talents to the audience, demonstrating great courage, composure and skills to perform under pressure. After each performance, our panel of special guest judges, including Mr Keach, Mr Storey, Ms Fateeva and one lucky student, Jessica (Year Six), provided feedback and praise for competitors.
Once all the acts were done it was time for the voting process to begin. Unfortunately, not all of the finalists could reach the winner's podium. This year the voting process allowed every single non-finalist student and teacher to vote for their favourite act. Once the votes were counted and verified, it was time to announce the winners:
1st Place – Stefania and Adelina (Year Six)
2nd Place – Maria (Year Five)
3rd Place – Taisia (Year Six)
Congratulations to everyone who has been involved in this fantastic showcase of talent in the International School of Moscow. We are already looking forward to the next year's competition.
