Digital SLR with tele like 180mm - 200mm or point & shoot with more than 3x optical zoom.

In my area you can rent this stuff pretty cheap so that may be an option without spending too much $$.

Also, I'm assuming you are inside:

* i wouldn't use a flash given that audience
* properly set your white balance for the ambient light
* tripod / mono pod will help reduce camera shake
* use a small f/stop number to compress the depth of field (adds emphasis on the main subject)
* take a lot of shots -- helps when picking the best ones

IMHO
