My first career was in the entertainment industry, being a musician. When I was a kid, I thought talent shows were an excellent way to get some promotion, get the band out there, and possibly get some work in local clubs. Then I got older.

We tended to avoid talent shows, as they were mostly a way for places to get free entertainment. The only shows we even looked at were those that offered an exceptional prize of some sort, like a recording contract, a Vegas spot, or something that we knew had a lot of competition.

I also remember shows like The Gong Show, where people with no talent were likely there for the humor value. So it seems that if you`re going to have an ongoing talent show venue, you`ll either need some really substantial prizes, or you`re looking for a sort of comedy structure?

Let me start by saying your passion is clear.  That is certainly a strength.  Consider Steve`s suggestion.  If you were to take your patented idea and break it into bite sized chunks, how many could you do without, and how many are not up for debate.  You might find a more feasible start that would bring you all the joy and prosperity you could stand. 

I would much rather see a different version of your dream define your success, than your vision fulfilled without the desired outcome.  Consider the hundreds of thousands of people all over the country trying to make the final twenty of American Idol  If I paid $5 to see 90 minutes of William Hung wannabees the memory would remain and it would not be beneficial to your dream.

 

This sounds like an excellent platform for Entrepreneurs and Talented Individuals to have a bit of the lime light.
