Performances are at 8 pm on Friday, May 4th and Saturday, May 5. There will also be a Sunday matinee at 2pm on May 6.

EXCITING NEWS!
X-Factor Auditions are being held at Huck Finn’s Warehouse in our own Albany, NY on Saturday, April 28th. Here is the deal: From these auditions - 4 winners will be selected and sent to Providence RI on May 9th for a guaranteed audition with show producers. The four winners will be from the four different categories on the show: Girls 12-29, Boys 12-29, over 30, and Groups (so yes, a group counts as one winner). If you’re not familiar, X Factor is a singing contest with a 5 million dollar prize that airs on FOX! So, although contests are not the end all-be all of singing, this is a really big opportunity for someone from our area to audition, work your chops and to possibly make it on the show.
A few extra insights: 1) Nationally X Factor is running short on groups this season and therefore chances of getting on the show increase! 2) FOX23 will only be sending one group on but people can still show up in Providence RI. 3) Submitting a video could win someone a local audition and get their video shown on the FOX23 morning news.
