furry variety show
We are calling upon all furry performers to don your fursuits and show us your sketch or song or special talent on stage!
The Furry Variety Show is a stage show consisting of independent acts performed by furry fans just like you. The fandom has an amazing breadth of talent and we want to showcase these talents as Vaudeville acts that are short and entertaining. Video submissions are also welcome.
We welcome contact from potential performers as early as six months before the show - we like performers who plan their acts in advance! The variety show offers an internal mailing list in which performers can brainstorm, coordinate, and support each other as they prepare their acts in the months leading up to the show.
If you would like to be a part of the show, please contact us at fvs@furfest.org and we can talk about how you can contribute. Please contact us well before the con so we can plan together how best to present your content and how we can help.
There are three simple guidelines for variety show performances:
Your entire act must be roughly 3 minutes or less (exceptions may be made on a case-by-case basis).
Your submission must be Furry in some way! Whether you are performing in furry costume, or producing content with a furry subject, this is about Furries showing off what they do best!
Keep it clean...ish! PG-13, to be specific. Some of our viewers may be underage, so material depicting acts of intense violence, overt sexuality, or highly offensive/controversial subject matter will not be accepted. We reserve the right to not accept a submission if we determine it just doesn't fit the show.
The Furry Variety Show is focused on short performances, but If you wish to entertain an audience for 30 minutes or more, you might wish to apply for a full stage performance instead!
Note: If you are unsure whether a submission may be acceptable, please feel free to email our staff with questions at fvs@furfest.org.
We will also accept video submissions to the show if you prefer that approach. Those must be received at least one week before the show.
Performers in the show will receive a customized certificate featuring original art.
We look forward to seeing your talented furry faces soon. Until then, take care of yourselves, don't forget to love each other, and have a lovely rest of your day!
