If you think you have the skills to execute circus acts live on stage, then the award-winning show WOW is looking for you. A GCC-wide talent hunt has been launched in search of gifted entertainers who can perform live on stage at The Rotunda. Participants will be asked to upload their best two-minute acts online and send the link of the video to rotunda@caesarsdubai.ae. Videos will be accepted until April 7. Selected performers will then be asked to perform live in front of a panel of reputable judges. The finalists' videos will be uploaded on social media and will be open to public voting for the chance to perform live at The Rotunda before the start of the show on May 3.
Awareness through art
A local art exhibition is making a statement about the need for equal pay, after a University of Oxford study found that female artists get paid 47.6 per cent less than their male counterparts. Hosted by Standard Chartered Bank, 'Art Gap' can be viewed at World Art Dubai at the Dubai World Trade Centre until April 6, from 1-9pm. The show will feature the works of a collective of Emirati and expat women artists, who will highlight the gender pay disparity by exhibiting paintings that are 47.6 per cent incomplete.
