Auditions for ITS 2012 come to Nassau, October 22nd
Nassau, Bahamas - There were just 9 Bahamian
participants among 150 at this year's International Talent Showcase
competition in Boca Raton, Florida, but that small group really made
its presence felt - walking away with nine division honours.
In fact, one young Bahamian, Chase
Carter, won the coveted title of Top Overall Female Fashion Model.
This year's Bahamian International
Talent Showcase (ITS) group was organised by Pia Rolle of PTG Modeling
Agency, who is also the regional director for ITS in the Bahamas.
Mrs Rolle said, "The International
Talent Showcase is an organisation whose primary objective is to promote
and increase the standards of training and education in the modelling
and performing arts industry.
ITS was founded in 1985,
and is a respected talent organisation that brings together top professionals
from around the world representing the modelling and performing arts
industry every year, giving aspiring singers, models, dancers and actors
a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to showcase their talent to and network
with top industry professionals, including agents, casting and film
directors and producers.

Mrs Rolle went on to say, "As a former participant,
I can attest to this entity's credibility and to the fact that competing
in an event similar to ITS years ago afforded me the opportunity to
work and travel the world as a professional model."
She said PTG Modeling Agency wants to publicly
acknowledge and thank Mario's Family Bowling and Entertainment Palace;
Garden Well Spa; Sharon McCarthy (ITS); Melissa Bradshaw (ITS); Shanta
Kerr (PTG); Island 102.9 FM and the Morning Boil; the staff at Securities
Commission of the Bahamas; the Scantlebury Family; the Francis Family;
