Were you born to sing out of tune to Ri-Ri? Would your A Midsummer Night’s Dream be Shakespeare’s nightmare? Do you Think You Can Dance? (I mean really, with tap-shoes on). Are you funnier than Matilda the bulldog with her little pink tutu on?

If you think you fit the bill, then show Louise what you’ve got in a short video. You can act solo or elicit the help of friends, family, pets ... it’s up to you. Include props or set your performance to music. Download our music file (Right-click and Save As..) or choose your own sound effects.

The entry that raises the most laughs will be contacted no later than Friday 4 May. Send your video by Monday 30 April for your chance to win:

  • An experience day at the Sylvia Young Theatre School for you and a friend.
  • Tickets to 'Wicked' at the Apollo Theatre
  • A night in a swanky hotel, all expenses paid!
