AUDITIONS for one of the country's top talent competitions will take place in Tranent this weekend.

Britain's Got Talent auditions will be held in The Fraser Centre on Friday, allowing East Lothian residents the chance to showcase their talents and enter the national competition.

The production team will be visiting Tranent on Friday night, between 7pm and 9pm, and are still on the lookout for performers to take to the stage.

The auditions are not open to the public, and anyone interested in performing is asked to contact organisers prior to the event, by emailing Jack Sloan at jack.sloan@thames.tv

All ages and performers are welcome to apply for an audition, but anyone under 18 must be accompanied by an adult.
