A TEENAGER is hoping for success in a national singing competition.
Sophie-Jean Richardson, of Willington, will compete in the regional audition of TeenStar (CORR) at the Mill Volvo Tyne Theatre, in Newcastle, on Saturday (March 22).
This is the first time the 15-year-old, who has only been singing for two years, has put her talents to the test in a competition.
The youngster is looking forward to the event but admits to being a little bit nervous.
She will be up against about 30 other teenagers in the 13 to 15-year-old category. The event will see them perform in front of judges and a live audience. They have all been successful in a preliminary audition.
