Southwest Showcase - 2022 / 2023 Concert Series
The Showcase Committee has planned for a two part 2022 / 2023 Southwest Showcase Concert Series. The 1st half Series will take place in the Fall of 2022 with performances by Don Amero, Leaf Rapids and Ken Lavigne. After Christmas, Royal MTC is booked for a drama production on February 14, 2023 and two other concerts are currently being lined up.
For Showcase patrons who purchased tickets for last winter's mini-series which had to be cancelled due to another Covid surge and left their tickets as a credit for future concerts, this Fall's lineup will be presented to you at no additional charge in redemption of your $50 / ticket credit.
For those of you who requested and received a refund last winter, there will be additional tickets available for you to purchase for the Fall 2022 Series. As health mandates have been lifted, there will be no restrictions when it comes to vaccinated vs. unvaccinated ticket buyers and proof of vaccination will no longer be required prior to attending. Mask wearing will be at the discretion of the attendee and not mandatory.
The Showcase Committee has a record of all those who are currently holding ticket credits and you will be contacted prior to the first scheduled concert in September 2022 either by phone or email. Directions will be given to you at that time regarding how you can pick up your new tickets. ( Either at the Aug. 25 or Sept. 1 Farmer's Markets or at the time of the first concert on September 25 )
Anyone wishing to purchase new or additional tickets for the Fall Series may do so at a Showcase table set up at the Deloraine Town Park during Farmer's Markets in late August and September. Tickets can also be purchased by contacting either Doug Whiteside at (204) 747-2885 / (204) 747-4485 ( call or text ) - or Merle Teetaert at (204) 747-4031. Tickets will remain the same price at $50 for 3 concerts. These will be available in the middle of August.

Notice to our Patrons:
Southwest Showcase in conjunction with the Festival Committee will be sponsoring a performance by this year's edition of the Westman Youth Choir on Monday, October 17. We are pleased to be able to feature this talented young group which will have a number of local area high school students as members. Admission will be taken at the door on the evening of the concert.
The Choir is being billeted that evening in Deloraine. If you feel you could possibly help out by taking a couple of billets for the evening it would be much appreciated. All that is required is a bed for the night and possibly a bite to eat for breakfast before they meet their bus the next morning. Please notify a member of the Showcase or Festival Committees if you are able to help out in this regard.
