The owners of Weston-super-Mare’s Grand Pier are organising an Open Mic Night on Tuesday 22nd June from 6pm at the Winter Gardens. They are holding the event to recruit both a resident compere and some entertainers for the coming summer season.
The compere is an important role at the Grand Pier. They keep visitors entertained in a variety of different ways from playing music from our DJ podium; mingling with the crowd - maybe accompanying them on a ride and reporting their thoughts. They will announce promotions and special offers as well as interviewing guests on what they think of the pier! It is important that they are out-going, have an excellent sense of humour and be able to think on their feet. They must also feel comfortable chatting to small groups of visitors as well as to the whole crowd via microphone from the DJ Podium.
Performers are being invited along to The Vineyard in the Winter Gardens, where they will be required to perform as a compere or to entertain the audience with singing, dancing, comedy or other act for a minimum of two minutes in front of a panel of judges and a small audience.
People who would like to perform at the open mic night are asked to email an up to date CV and a recent photograph of themselves to events@grandpier.co.uk or call now on 01934 646157.
Pier owner Kerry Michael said: “We are looking for a resident compere to work on the Pier. This will be a very important job in keeping our visitors informed and happy. We are looking for someone who is confident, outgoing and with a larger-than-life personality.
To attend, pre-registering is essential.
