    Bob Cushman

    On Saturday August 6, the top 10 performers of the Daily Herald 2016 Suburban Chicago’s Got Talent took to the stage in downtown Arlington Heights at the Taste of Arlington. Each act performed one song, while the judges deliberated the overall winner. The Fan Favorite winner was also determined. There was so much talent on the stage, and we thank every one of our performers and the great audience who helped cheer everyone on.
