Wanna be a Part of the Olympic Opening Ceremony?

Although a mighty 10,000 volunteers have auditioned for the Olympics’ Opening Ceremony, the organisers were rather hoping to put on a show featuring twice that number. And they’re especially keen to feature more men:

We need more men – particularly if you have rhythm! This means those of you who can dance but also drum, or do any sport, job, or hobby that involves keeping to time. Previous performance experience is not required; Ceremonies Volunteer Performers simply need lots of enthusiasm, personality, a positive attitude, huge amounts of energy and a willingness to perform in front of a stadium audience and to millions of people around the world.

If that sounds like your kind of thing then head HERE!
