Auditions for Amateur Night at the Apollo Tomorrow in Philadelphia

Launching careers of Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Michael Jackson, and more, Amateur Night at The Apollo Theater in Harlem was the original "American Idol."

On Saturday, July 27, representatives from The Apollo Theater will be in Philadelphia taking auditions for "vocalists, dancers, comedians, spoken word artists, and other performers looking to score a spot on the Apollo Stage," according to a report on WOGL.

Auditions begin at 10 a.m. and only the first 300 acts will get seen, so be there early!
