School Talent Show
Help! My school's talent show is coming up and I dont know what to do! I can't play an instrument, sing, gymnastics, dance, magic, or anything! I can't do a group act because everybody already has their groups. Please HELP!! Auditions are in 2 days! I also can't do stand up comedy either. I'm a girl by the way. Also last year I played a song on piano but didn't get past the auditions.I have stopped/forgotten how to play and its too late to learn.
~ Thanks

Maybe give some free advice about: School?
Why not do something memorable. Pick a topic important to you be it cancer, AIDS, wildlife, mental health etc. that has directly affected you or someone else and deliver a monologue that will make someone else think. That's a talent. Public Speaking.
Also, who says you aren't funny or capable of doing stand-up comedy? What you have to have is perfect timing. Choose something people can relate to and find unique observations about it that you can get laughs with. Have help from family.
You really have no idea what you truly can do if you don't try or allow this BS thought "I can't' to prevent you from going for it anyway. What if you did bomb so what? As long as you tried and had fun that's what mattered.
Do something that makes a difference like the idea above or even better the comedy or something you think you can't do to prove you can. That's better than winning. The sooner young people get over this "I can't" BS the better. It's like sitting in your car, keys in the ignition but afraid to start the motor. Once you do you'll be fine.
Also, even if people have their own group for songs, acting, skits, comedy it doesn't mean you can't be a part of their act either by contributing the writing or directing talent even that they may lack. You may have the words and they may have the voices or talent in other areas. If you are a writer it's a talent people need and more valuable than their's in some aspects.
