The Tift Theatre in Tifton is inviting local singers to showcase their talents in the upcoming Masked Singer contest. Scheduled for auditions on January 6 and January 8, 2026, from 17:30 to 19:00, this event promises to be an exciting platform for performers looking to make their mark.
Following the success of last year’s inaugural contest, which took place around Valentine’s Day, theatre manager Kezia Larry decided to bring back the popular event. The original competition attracted attention for its unique twist on the reality television show format, featuring contestants performing in elaborate costumes while the audience cheered them on. Last year’s event not only entertained but also fostered a strong sense of community among Tifton residents.
Contestants in this year’s Masked Singer contest will once again take to the stage, performing love songs or personal favorites. The talent will be evaluated by a panel of judges, including last year’s winner. The stakes are high, with the chance to win a prestigious first-place trophy, adding an extra layer of excitement to the performances.
Aspiring singers interested in auditioning do not need to come in costume. Instead, they are encouraged to prepare their favorite love song to perform during the auditions. Should they be selected for the main event, the Tift Theatre will assist in providing costumes, ensuring that every participant can shine in their own way.
Entrants must be at least sixteen years of age to participate in the contest. For additional details or inquiries, interested individuals can reach out to the Tift Theatre at (229) 386-5150.
With the theatre’s commitment to fostering local talent, this year’s Masked Singer contest is poised to be a memorable experience for both participants and the audience alike. The event not only highlights the artistic abilities of Tifton’s residents but also strengthens community bonds through the shared love of music and performance.
