Massapequa’s Got Talent, the talent show that has been in preparation since October, is definitely being rescheduled.
“I’m not sure,” tenth grade girls’ chorus teacher Mrs. Dempsey said when asked for the new date. “We might have to wait until February, what with the play and the winter concerts—we don’t know when we’ll be able to get the stage.”

As many would-be attendees are disappointed and possibly a little miffed about spending eight dollars for a ticket, the music department will probably try to reschedule soon before people start demanding their money back.

“All the money raised will be going to the music department’s annual trip to Disney World. It will be used to help those who can’t afford to pay for it themselves,” junior Katlyn Gallery said.

It would be a shame to see a show funding such a good cause get canceled, but Dempsey says that it will definitely be rescheduled.

“I’m really excited about performing because I love the song we’re doing!” Junior Jennifer Enochs said before the storm. “It’s probably my favorite song to perform.”

It appears that attendees will not be the only people disappointed if the show is cancelled; the student performers will be disappointed as well. From acts like singing to performing short stories, the range of talent is overwhelming.

“Not only do we want them to support their peers, but they might be inspired to audition themselves next year,” Mrs. Dempsey said.
