Registration is officially open for the 2026 Young Talent Big Dreams competition, and we’re breaking it all down on the Can We Talk Podcast with the team from The Children’s Trust.
Now in its 16th year, this FREE talent showcase is one of Miami-Dade’s biggest stages for young performers. Open to children and teens ages 8–18, the competition gives participants the opportunity to shine in categories like music, dance, voice, spoken word, and original composition.
Auditions will run from April 4 through April 19, 2026, followed by semifinals on May 2 and 3, and the finals on May 9 at the Miracle Theatre. All auditions will take place on professional stages at the Miracle Theatre, and participation is completely free for eligible Miami-Dade County residents.
In this episode, we talk about what makes this program so impactful, how to get involved, and why this opportunity continues to shape the next generation of talent in our community. Register and view audition dates here https://actorsplayhouse.org/young-tal….
