BRAVO, WEST! West's Got Talent: A Spectacular Display of Student Talent! #207Now #West'sGotTalent #VShow #artsed #talent @mwactivities @mainewestdrama @mainewestchoir @mworchestras @mainewestband

Congratulations to the cast, crew and directors of West's Got Talent, the 2021 V-Show. Over 150 Maine West students shined on (and off) the stage, sharing their talents with the community and impressing us all!

Acts included Warrior Strings, Choraliers, West Side Dance Company, original compositions, covers of songs, solo and group dance numbers, stand-up comedy and a guitar solo that made you think Joe Satriani was on stage himself!

The pit orchestra sounded fabulous!

For those of you not able to make the live show, here is a video of the Thursday, November 4, 2021 performance:
