Chartwell’s annual Senior Star talent competition is coming to Willow Senior Living Residence on June 20.

Local contestants 65 years and older can compete for the opportunity to participate as a Top 10 finalist in the annual Senior Star National Finale, taking place in Niagara Falls this November.

During the regional competitions, contestants are given a maximum of five minutes to sing a song, play an instrument, or do both, and their performance is videotaped. Musical accompaniment is provided to singing contestants, if required. A panel of three judges, made up of local musical experts, government officials, and media representatives choose the top three local contestants, each of whom will be recognized with a Senior Star trophy.

Videos of the first and second place winners from across Canada are then submitted to a celebrity panel of judges who will narrow the list to nine competitors invited to compete in the Senior Star National Final.

Members of the public are invited to attend the local event on June 20, which will be hosted by Elvis Presley impersonator Steve Elliott.
