Free, But Registration Required.  Save My Spot!

Erma’s Got Talent, loosely formatted along the lines of America’s Got Talent, will offer 12 randomly selected contestants the opportunity to perform two minutes of their original stand-up material in front of three celebrity judges — acclaimed comedians Brian Kiley, Wendy Liebman and Leighann Lord. Nancy Berk, host of the podcast “Entertaining Insights,” will serve as emcee.

Here's the line-up of Erma's Got Talent performers: https://udayton.edu/blogs/erma/2020/10/stand_up_performers.php

The winning contestant and runners up will be eligible to perform on the virtual stage on Attendee Stand-Up Comedy Night  at 9 p.m., Friday, Oct. 30, at the Erma Bombeck Writers' Workshop. Other performers for that evening will be selected randomly after this event.

Entertaining and educational, Erma's Got Talent is an instructional opportunity for participants as well as the audience. The judges will highlight the strengths and weaknesses of performance/material and offer expert suggestions.

Free and open to the public, but only registered attendees are eligible to perform.  Because the demand for this stand-up opportunity is high, performers will not be eligible for the random drawing of Stand-Up Night participants.
