WHS Student Council is hosting Wylie’s Got Talent where students get the opportunity to perform for the community and students from all skillsets get to participate behind the scenes to perform on stage.
“Honestly, it’s [going to] be a lot of improvisation,” Sania Ali (12) said. “We have a script, but it’s really hard to memorize in one day, so it’s good, telling jokes, interacting with the audience. things like that, just trying to keep it short and sweet, still, so it’s just having fun.”
Clubs are able to perform for the Talent Show together and perform their routines.
“We don’t really perform that often,” Bianca Sowunmi (12) said. “We only perform at, like, pep rallies, but we don’t perform at all pep rallies so, I am excited to just, like, get out there again.”
It gave the step team the opportunity to display their choreography and work they put in this year.
“The dance is my favorite part because I choreographed it, and it’s the most exciting part in my opinion,” Nailah Echols (12) said.
It also gives the opportunity for students with bands outside of school to perform for the community.
“We thought it was a great way to sort of expand our audience a bit, like, inside the, you know, high school, cause you already have, you know, whatever a lot of friends who know us, but we can also, like tap into a wider audience and also other acts going on too, so, which is, you know, nice to collaborate,” George Nguyen (12) said.
