A talent showcase will highlight some of Manitoba’s most talented people this summer.
The second annual Manitoba Star Attractions Talent Showcase will take place at tourist attractions throughout the province, with the finals set for the International Peace Gardens in August.
“This showcase is giving Manitoba performers who have never had a professional recording of their music an opportunity to play in a live audience environment,” said event organizer Errol Ranville. “After a successful inaugural year in 2010, we’re pleased to offer more opportunities for aspiring performers in Manitoba.”
