We have a "Variety Show" each year rather than a "Talent Show". This way the kids have the opportunity to do almost anything within reason but they don't necessarily have to have a talent. Our theme for last year was "3 Cheers for the Red, White, & Blue" (for 9/11). The prior year was "Through the Years" (or something like that) and we had the kids pick something that showcased a particular time in history - one act was Flappers, another did a comedy skit from I Love Lucy, and another did the Brady Bunch. You see where we were going...it turned out very well. Hope you show goes well! Good Luck.
