On the afternoon of June 3, 2008, parents, friends, and students of International School were treated to a showcase of talents, creativity, and showmanship at the school’s annual Talent Show. Held at Samaná, the show served as an opportunity for students to share with the audience their gifts and hard work in extracurricular interests, including dance, music, and theater.

Budding artists in the making, participants voluntarily put together acts, choreographed, selected the music, and practiced their moves for the gala of talents. The acts included students of various grade levels and highlighted the creative solidarity among the boys and girls of International School. As an open platform of self-expression, the Talent Show was an important event during which the children could present themselves and their interests, likes, and tastes to the greater school community. It also served as an example to the littlest ones of the student body, to awaken their artistic interests and share them in the future in a public forum.

As can be expected, some of the most popular music and dance styles were chosen for the majority of the acts. These often included props such as streamers and even a basketball, as well as brightly colored and coordinated costumes. Valeria Solís shared with the audience two dances that she performed on stage alone. In addition to dance, however, there was a short play presented, Héctor playing his violin, and Diego telling some jokes. All three levels of kindergarten danced in groups to catchy tunes and with fun costumes. Lastly, Karen Montes de Oca, an alumna of International School, returned to the Talent Show accompanied by her students to perform belly dancing and contribute to the splendid variety of the afternoon.
