CTG presents TRIAD IDOL 2008

Community Theatre of Greensboro is proud to present TRIAD IDOL 2008.

TRIAD IDOL is the Community Theatre of Greensboro's annual fundraiser and talent-finder.

March 9, 2008

After an incredible Final Event at the Carolina Theatre in downtown Greensboro, the 2008 Triad Idols have been crowned!

Nearly 800 people crowded into the Carolina Theatre to cheer on their favorite contestants. The 41 finalists gave the performances of their lives, and the audience loved each and every song! From country to gospel, Broadway to hip-hop, opera to pop, the finalists sang a little bit of everything. And they sang it beautifully!

With such an abundance of talent, the judges had an extremely tough job, but they all enjoyed the responsibility.
