Entering and competing at Nelson Mandela Bay Dance Festival is always memorable, but this year stands out as an event that I have never experienced before. Coming home from the theatre I had a run in with the surfeit of potholes and lost! Blown tyre on a dark road(the street lights are never working) on my own. Thank goodness for some friendly and extremely helpful locals!!
Something I never want to experience again!!

What an incredible weekend at the Theatre Dance Association Regional Competition held on 7 & 8 August! Our talented dancers, aged 7–17, performed beautifully under the eyes of two experienced judges — and their hard work truly paid off.

Results we’re celebrating:
✨ 8 Gold – 1st Places
✨ 1 Gold – 2nd Place
✨ 12 Silver – 1st Places
✨ 5 Silver – 2nd Places

A special highlight was Elizabeth Pomeroy-Ward, who received the Regional Baby Star Award at the judges’ discretion.

These achievements mean our dancers have now qualified for the Move National Dance Competition in Cape Town this September and they are beyond excited to “move” onto the national stage!
