Got talent? You could win $1000

The Capital Region has talent, and 73 contestants from Albany to Wynantskill will compete for $1000 in a talent show this week at the Cohoes Music Hall.

Tonight is the last night of auditions at the music hall before tomorrow night's talent show at 7:00 P.M., where the top 20 contestants will compete for a grand prize of $1,000.

Three judges will rate each contestant based on four categories: overall performance, creativity, showmanship and audience response.

Tickets to tonight's auditions are $5, and tickets to the talent show tomorrow night are $10.
