Time Warner Cable of San Antonio logoPerformers compete in shows in their perspective Council Districts. In the past, talents have ranged from piano solos to vocalists singing ranchera music to dance numbers.

This program is made possible by the generous corporate sponsorship of Time Warner Cable Co.

The shows are televised on Time Warner Cable's On Demand Digital channel 988. This free local on demand channel focuses on arts and culture, local sports, events around San Antonio, education, and local government. The On Demand component of this channel allows customers to fast-forward, pause and rewind the program just like a DVD player.

The schedule for 2008 auditions and shows is now available. You may audition at any of the open auditions or district auditions, but if selected to compete in a show, you must compete in the district in which you live. The registration form will be available on this site in the near future.
