30 talent show ideas that aren't music

Talent shows are a common kind of ward activity. But if you're like me, when they say "talent show," what you hear is "amateur music hour." So if you don't play an instrument, or don't want to, can you still participate?
Here are my top 30 ideas:
Dance
Recite slam poetry
Show a short film or animation you made
Do standup comedy
Perform a short story
Juggle
Do a handstand
Do a fire knife routine with glow sticks
Show off your sword skills
Teach the audience yoga
Present a research paper
Do stunts
Perform a dramatic monologue
Demo a game you created
Hold your breath for a really long time
Break a world record
Paint or draw something on stage
Act out a memorable scene from a movie
Recite a Dr Seuss book as a rap
Do magic tricks
Decorate a cake
Show them how easy it is to find a name for the temple on familysearch
Solve a Rubik's Cube
Do impressions
Shadow puppets
Sock puppets
Showcase old technology
Have the audience quiz you on Disney trivia or scripture quotes
Perform a song in sign language
Recite the First Vision in your mission language
If you have other ideas, please comment them below!

*with glow sticks haha. I saw a guy do this a couple times, swinging glow sticks attached to strings in a routine set to music. It was pretty awesome, and completely safe. I'm glad you enjoyed the video!

[@christinesandoval6361]

Fun fact: Doctor sues is actually racist he got away with it for so many years because people thought it was just a innocent children's book even though it was showing racism drawing that are racist to japenese people and black people.
