Dekker Centre looking for talented performers for Showcase
The Dekker Centre in North Battleford will be giving area residents an opportunity to showcase their performance skills for an upcoming show for On Stage at the Dekker Centre.
Karen Ulmer, who is on the volunteer board for The Showcase event, said it will be a professional production and all artists as well as the director will be paid a fee for taking part. She pointed out the event is not a talent show, but rather a curated professional production.
“The idea is we want to get all these incredibly talented people in the Battlefords opportunities to perform in public,” she said. “It is a professional-type show. The people who have contributed in the past have gone on to collaborate with other people. They perform all over the city.
“Some have gone on to do recordings,” she added. “It’s an opportunity for them to perform in a professionally managed show, with lighting and direction, professional sound, and of course at the Dekker Centre which is a fantastic facility.”
