"Shark Tank" to hold Atlanta auditions 

  • comment(3)

By Jennifer Brett

ABC's "Shark Tank" holds auditions in Atlanta this Sunday.

Entrepreneurs aiming to show their stuff are invited to the Fox Theatre. The first 500 to show up are "guaranteed to be seen and will pitch the 'Shark Tank' casting team with their products, services or ideas," according to organizers.

The crew:

"Billionaire Mark Cuban, owner and chairman of AXS TV and outspoken owner of the 2011 NBA championship Dallas Mavericks; real estate mogul Barbara Corcoran; “Queen of QVC” Lori Greiner; technology innovator Robert Herjavec; fashion and branding expert Daymond John; and venture capitalist Kevin O’Leary."

So, eager for your shot? Show up on time or early and pack your patience. Numbered wristbands will be distributed from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Sunday, while interviews start at noon.

“Shark Tank” received a 2012 Emmy nomination for Outstanding Reality Program and was nominated for a Critics’ Choice TelevisionAward for Best Reality Series. For the uninitiated, here's the show's description:

"The entrepreneurs who dare to enter the Tank must try to convince the Sharks to part with their own hard-earned cash and give them the funding they desperately need to turn their dreams into million dollar realities. But the Sharks have a goal, too – to get a return on their investment and own a piece of the next big business idea. When the Sharks hear an idea worth sinking their teeth into, they’re more than ready to declare war and fight each other for a piece of it."
