Demi: Okay.
Mary: Welcome to the ___th annual Plano’s Got Talent talent show! And boy, do we
have a great show for every one of you tonight.
Demi: Yes, that’s right. Over 45 acts were auditioned this year, and while every one
of them was impressive, no one wants to be here for next 9 hours. So from those 45
acts came 60 of Plano’s most talented students, showcasing 19 different talents for
you all today.
Mary: As talented as these people are, they didn’t all come together out of nowhere.
This entire show was set up over a grueling month-long period by the officers of our
school’s National Honors Society, so lets give ‘em a hand.

(pause for applause)

Demi: That same group of people also enlisted the help of tonight’s talented
celebrity judge panel, made up of teachers you know and love. All the way from the
Math department, give it up for Mr. Gallo!

(Pause for applause)

Mary: Our second judge was teacher of the year, as decided by me, just now- give it
up for Ms. Heslep!

(Pause for applause)

Demi: Our second judge is a 3-time Olympic Gold medalist in Espanol, give it up for
Mrs. Fresquez!

(Pause for applause)

Mary: This fourth judge was the president of Sweden for ten years, then left to
pursue a teaching job, give a warm welcome to Mrs. Piegat!

(Pause for applause)

Demi: Our final judge is a has done absolutely nothing special (pause for oooohs)
and I’m probably going to fail her class now, put your hands together for Mrs.
Gallatin!

(Pause for applause)

Mary: And, as an extra surprise, for you guys every student that attended this show
will receive two free 100 daily grades in these teachers classes!

(Pause for applause)

Demi: April fools! We lied to you!

Mary: Yep! Nobody gets anything!
Demi: Technically it’s a day early, but we’re running on British time!
Mary: Our second act of the night is an incredible song performed by an incedible
girl- it’s Katie Valletuttu, singing “Crush.”

Demi: That was great, Katie. Really great. Mary. What did you think?
Mary: Wonderful. Without a doubt, it is the best song we have heard tonight.

Owl City’s “Fireflies” and the Black Eyed Peas’ “I’ve Got A Feeling”. Please welcome
Shane Ye & Jim Sheng!

3. Jim Sheng and Shane Ye (ASL of “Fireflies” and “I’ve Got a Feeling”)-

Demi: It’s always cool to see something performed in another language.

Mary: It is. You know, I’m fluent in Mandarin.
Demi: Oh really? That’s cool. Teach me a word in Mandarin!
Mary: Sure! (short Mandarin word)
Demi: What does that mean?
Mary: It means “Please welcome Eric Coveney, Bola Ibadapo, Ryan Prim, Jake Sklar,
and Stephen Bain performing Wild Cherry’s 1976 hit, Play that funky music!”
Demi: Wow… that’s really specific.

4. Eric Coveney, Bola Ibadapo, Ryan Prim, Jake Sklas, Stephen Bain performing “Play
That Funky Music” – drums, amps, guitars, 1 Microphone

Mary: Wow, those guys are really talented. What was your part of that act?
Demi: I liked the part where they played the music.
Mary: Uh… isn’t that the entire act?
Demi: No, there were other parts. The part when they came on the stage, the part
where they left the stage, the part where they grabbed their instruments. Clearly
you weren’t paying attention, jerk.
Mary: Of course I was paying attention, I ju-
Demi: NO NO NO. No excuses. Just introduce the next act.
Mary: Fine. Up next we have the lovely Chelsia Reeves, singing Adele’s “Chasing

Demi: Yes, this next performance is rather incredible.

Demi: If we rated it ourselves, we’d give it a ten.
Demi & Mary: So give it up for Daryl Ferguson!

performed by a group of five seniors.

actually spells something.
Demi: Oh really, what’s that?
Mary: KJAEA.
Demi: … I don’t think that’s an actual word.

Demi: Yep, but there’s one thing I haven’t seen.
Mary: What’s that?
Demi: Well, every time I go to a sports game, they always try to get the audience to
do the wave, but it never works successfully. I think we could do it right though.
Mary: You think so?
Demi: Yeah, I do! Let’s do this!

Demi leads THE WAVE

Mary: I’m not sure what the point of that was, Demi.
Demi: Oh, I have a list of things to do before I graduate high school.
Mary: And one of those things was to lead a crowd in “the wave”?
Demi: Yep. Now I just have to teach a dog to surf, and I will be done.
Mary: That is a weird list. This next act is an awesome song from two awesome
people- please welcome Loren Salu and Chika Mbah singing “No One.”

13. Loren Salu and Chika Mbah singing “No One” – 2 Microphones

Demi: Wow, that makes 13 acts in a row that have absolutely blown me away.
Mary: I know! I keep expecting at least one of these to be simply “okay”, but they’re
all great. Our judges are going to have a hard time deciding the winner tonight.
Demi: I know that’s right! So let’s make it even harder on the judges with this next
act, a mysteeeerious, mystifying magic act, by Jacob Ponce!

14. Jacob Ponce performing a magic show – soft red background light, 1
Microphone?

Demi: Man, it’s incredible how many different talents you never see at this school
until tonight.
Mary: And it’s not just the people in this show! I bet every single person in this
school has a talent.
Demi: Oh, I’m sure of it. I bet points that guy plays a rockin’ bass.
Mary: Mhm. And I bet points that girl is a really good juggler.
Demi: Yeah. I know points that guy has been trained to talk to a variety sea animals.
Mary: Oh yeah, and I bet- wait, what?
Demi: That guy can talk to sea animals.
Mary: No way. I bet he can’t.
Demi: I’ll take that bet. shakes hand Sir, can you talk to dolphins? No? What about
turtles? Sharks? Seafish? You’re killing me here.
Mary: You lost! We’ll discuss the terms of your loss backstage. But for now, we’re
going to take another short intermission, so you can all stretch, go to the bathroom,
fix world hunger, et cetera.

INTERMISSION 2.0

Demi: Welcome back to Plano’s Got Talent!

Mary: With 14 acts down, and only 5 more to go, you’re in for a real treat over the
next few minutes.
Demi: That’s right. You’ve already seen what incredible talents the people of Plano
have. What’s even better is when they come together as a group and show off a
common talent.
Mary: And that’s exactly what this next group of 10 students did.
Demi: So please welcome to the stage, Samuel See, Chris Im, Nikhila Kanthety,
Devon Trumbauer, Jeffrey Lavine, Chris Escarfullery, Lauren Parks, Eleni Sanders,
Erin Reas, and Lindsay Golem!

Mary: I have to agree. And with only three acts left to go, I must say that I’m really
excited to see what we’ve still got going on.
Demi: Totally. And what I can’t get enough of are the dancers. I’m the most
uncoordinated person on the planet, so I’m always amazed when someone comes
out onto the stage with such awesome dance moves.
Mary: That being said, put your hands together for Kelton Reed, Blake Robertson,
Mikey McFatter, and Brandon McCalister.

17. Kelton Reed, Blake Robertson, Mikey McFatter, and Brandon McCalister dancing

Mary: Those guys were awesome!

Demi: I’ve known many of those guys for years, and I never knew they had that kind
of talent.
Mary: This school is full of talent, Demi.
Demi: That’s right, Mary, for instance, did you guys know that I was a licensed pilot?
Mary: That’s neat! Did you know that I am a 3-time Olympic Gold medalist?
Demi: I did, but did you all know that I speak fifteen different languages?
Mary: If you didn’t know any of these things, it is because none of them are true.
Demi: Yep. You’re being lied to. These are all filler jokes, because we have
absolutely nothing else to say here.
Mary: So instead of just standing here awkwardly for the next few minutes, we are
pleased to welcome to the stage Laura Garcia, singing “If I Ain’t Got You”!
18. Laura Garcia singing “If I Ain’t Got You” -1 Microphone

Demi: Great job Laura! You really did justice to that great song.
Mary: Alright guys, we’re coming down the final stretch here. This song is the last
performance of the night, but it’s definitely not the least.
Demi: That’s right, and do we have a great final performance here- this is a team of
three students performing two great songs for you, so please give a warm welcome
to Madison Whitehead, Allison Chu, and Ryan Prim, performing 100 Years and
Fifteen.
