Compering in English - with Example compering

IIT Chennai - Saturday, 12 February , 2000

Comperes: Radha Ramani & Shiv Narain

Radha : Good evening. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to IIT
Chennai Mardi Gras 2000! Well, there is music, a hushed
crowd and the lighting of ceremonial flame, but it has
nothing to do with the Olympics. Tonight Chennai’s guys
and girls have gathered for yet another Mardi Gras for the
year 2000. It is being launched with a distinct Olympic
flavour. The one week festival will culminate on 19th
February with the famous parade through the streets of
IIT campus. In front of a hushed crowd on the steps of the
IIT gallery, the flams is it with the reverence of -well -
Mardi gras.

Ladies and gentlemen, Shiv Narain and I arc representing
our students as comperes in this cultural event. And if you
want to announce anything, any time, you just come on
right up and let us know,

Shiv : That’s an offer. What are you going to do for the cultural
fest? Are you looking forward to those?

Radha: Yeah. We are wrapping up with Pundit Hari Prasad
Chaurasia’s flute concert. Hey, I’m going to compete in
the ‘Dumb charade’ sessions!

Shiv: And thai would be your best contribution to silence. It’s a
new event. Those who wish to take part can register in
counter C with Camel alias Kamlesh!

Radha: The Mardi gras festival is estimated to pour more than
Rs. 20,000/- into the treasury of the campus. So much for
the aside, Ladies and Gentlemen put your hands together
to declare the fest open.

Shiv: While it is important for us over the next few days to have
fun, relax and simply enjoy ourselves, it is important for us
to appreciate that what happens here has an effect
elsewhere in our lives.

Radha: Mardi gras is much more than fast food, din music and
event trotting. It has a focus on fun, and all your dreams
and expectations are sure to feature during the coming days.
Get going folks!

Shiv: Go forth and have an unbelievably gorgeous Mardi gras.
There is nothing nicer than being a sportive, aggressive
participant in February- the month of Mardi gras.
Note: The name of Ihe IIT cultural festival is Mardi gras.
