Want to be a BBC performer?

BBC1 is looking for yet more reality tele stars to strut their stuff on the old goggle box. That's what you pay your licence fee for then...

 

4BR has been informed that a brand new entertainment show is coming to BBC1 in the New Year.

According to the producers, it's not yet another talent competition, and there are no judges or public voting — just a chance to shine.

Dream Performance

'Dream Performance' is looking for people with a hidden talent they're longing to unleash or anyone who has always wanted to learn a new performance skill.

Alternatively you might want to transform your wedding dance into a sizzling spectacle with the help of world class professionals or re-enact your favourite moment in pop, comedy, TV or movie history. Or just say a big thank you to someone special by having their favourite star serenade them.
