As per the announcement

Hi

Is this dialogue natural, especially the underlined part?

(discussion on a college function -- B attended the function; A missed it)

A - How were all the items performed? Was there any special sequence?

B - No sequence and we were given no agenda or list. All items were performed as per the announcements.

A - You mean random?

Thanks,

Tom

PS: items = all the songs, skits, tableaus, etc performed on stage by the students. Correct choice of word?
