Ausdance ACT 2024 Youth Dance Festival 'What Do You Dream?'
Celebrating its 40th Anniversary with a theme of ‘What do You Dream?’, Ausdance ACT presents Youth Dance Festival an exciting mix of live dance performances made by secondary schools from all over the Canberra region for three nights at the Canberra Theatre.
In celebration of 40 Years of Youth Dance Festival they have YDF alumni and star teachers and choreographers: KG from Passion & Purpose, Caroline Wall from Fresh Funk and Francis Owusu from Kulture Break working together with their creative team to make an opening piece to be performed each night. These artists dreamed of a life full of dance and music, fulfilled through their lives as performers, choreographers and now mentors and teachers of the next generation.
Youth Dance Festival encourages a student-led approach to dance making, choreography, theatre and filmmaking and provides a shared artistic experience. For some, it may be the very first time they step on a theatre stage and this magic moment could set the path for a future career in the arts. For others, it will become a cherished memory and a valuable experience.
They encourage you to support the hard work and dedication of Canberra region students and witness their co-creative ability.
