It’s that time of year again! SaskExpress is looking for talented singers and dancers to join their 2019 Summer Cast. The SaskExpress Summer Tour gives Saskatchewan performers the opportunity to experience the life of a professional. Under the direction of CEO and Artistic Director, Danny Balkwill, performers will learn a full 90-minute show and tour it around the province, igniting the talents of Saskatchewan’s young performers.
For nearly 40 years, SaskExpress has provided training and opportunities to performers from all parts of the province, from the smallest communities to major centers. Many SaskExpress performers have gone on to professional careers in entertainment around the world, including Broadway, cruise ships, touring shows and stage productions, as well as appearances in film, television, and recordings. SaskExpress is proud to deliver first-class family entertainment, all while developing Saskatchewan’s most promising performers,
