Regarded as Cape Town’s largest premier dance platform and in its seventh year, the festival aims to provide emerging and established dance companies and choreographers with an opportunity to present their work, whilst striving to nurture and promote dance talent in the Western Cape.  The festival has grown exponentially and become one of the “must-see activities” on Cape Town’s events calendar.  

As part of the forthcoming Genée International Ballet Competition, the Royal Academy of Dance (RAD) will present Sizodanisa (Let's Dance!), a series of workshops being held over two days at the Artscape Theatre Centre, culminating in a dynamic dance showcase on the Artscape’s theatre stage on Wednesday 5 October at 3:00pm.

Some of South Africa’s most talented young dancers will ignite the Artscape stage early this July when they perform in Jazzart Dance Theatre’s annual celebration of dance, Danscape from 7 - 10 July 2011.
