Czarina in 2016 World Championships of Performing Arts in USA

Melbourne-based Filipino-Australian, Czarina Lapus will represent Victoria, Australia to be part of the Australian team to participate in the 2016 World Championships of Performing Arts to be held this July in Hollywood, USA.

“Czarina is a vocalist who was selected by the International Entertainment Panel to represent Australia on a world stage in July 2016. This is an opportunity of a lifetime and could open many career doors for Czarina and we are certain will bring back gold for Australia,” National Director, Lizette Hunt said.

The World Championships of Performing Arts celebrates its 20th year, in July 2016, and is now universally cited as the one-and-only official global event for performers and entertainers both amateur and professional.

Griff O’Neil, competition president and founder, and a one-time executive of the Miss Universe Pageant, has recruited over 75 scouts and national directors to scour the globe for outstanding talent. “This is the only Olympic-style talent competition ever created,” O’Neil stated, “and a rare opportunity for the privileged few selected to participate at this elite world event.”

Applicants from 50 countries auditioned to participate in the USA, for a spot to compete at the ultimate world meet staged in the beautiful Long Beach Performing Arts Centre, California, USA. Contestants will be staying at The Westin Hotel, Long Beach.

Outstanding successes were achieved by the entire team in July 2015 with more than 189 medals won, Junior Dancer of the World, Senior Variety Act of the World, 8 Grand Finalists, 12 Industry Awards, 16 major scholarships, 26 Overall Awards and 12 Industry Awards.

Sponsors are welcome and any support to help Czarina raise funds to get to Hollywood in July 2016 would be appreciated.
