Morning Pointe Foundation held their fifth annual Seniors Got Talent showcase in front of a sold-out crowd at The Franklin Theatre.

The senior talent show saw 12 performances from singer-songwriters, pianists, guitarists and a flag batonist.

66-year-old pianist Jack Wise won the $500 first-place cash prize for his original song “Live Life More," while 74-year-old singer Judy Street earned second place and 65-year-old singer Brett McCreary earned both third place and the People's Choice Award.

"Just being on the stage of the historic Franklin Theatre is an honor and a privilege, and then to be with these people and this wonderful talent that we've enjoyed tonight, it has been a fabulous show," Wise said, adding that he was "stunned" by his win.

78-year-old Nancy Stuenkel and her dance partner 75-year-old Lane Wilkinson, who have been seriously dancing for five and three years respectively, won last year's competition and returned this year to open the show with a dance medley to Stevie Wonder's "Sign, Sealed, Delivered (I'm Yours)."

"It's great because you kind of get to a certain age where you don't get to do this kind of stuff, so I really appreciated the opportunity to perform," Stuenkel told The News. "Everybody who is dancing is smiling, everybody's happy, everybody's out for a good time, and I've made some really wonderful friends dancing, of all ages."

"It has saved my life," Wilkinson added. "That's what my doctors at Vanderbilt said — I had all these blockages and they said that the only reason I'm still alive is because of dancing."

"When you're dancing, you're not just having to exercise your body, you're exercising your brain."

WSMV Chief Meteorologist Lisa Spencer returned as this year's master of ceremonies, with musicians Rich Eckhardt and Mackenzie Wasner, Fox and Locke Open Night emcee Alex Tinker IV, and Spring Hill Mayor Jim Hagaman serving as judges.

The annual showcase is produced in partnership with Morning Pointe Senior Living, which began 14 years ago in Hixon, with other competitions taking place in Chattanooga, Knoxville, and Lexington, Kentucky.

Proceeds benefit the Morning Pointe Foundation, the philanthropic arm of Morning Pointe Senior Living, with this year's event raising more than $30,000 for the foundation's mission of providing scholarships at partner schools, including Columbia State Community College in Middle Tennessee.

"It's an opportunity for us to all come together and express our appreciation for the arts and to also support the community colleges and caregiver programs across Williamson County," Morning Pointe Senior Living President Greg Vital told The News.
