(Taryn Leppan’s Highway Dance Academy appears on the programme)Rhythm and Dance, the RAD KwaZulu-Natal Regional Advisory Panel’s annual fundraising showcase of dance, takes place in the Playhouse Drama on June 2.
The production not only celebrates the splendid development of the students’ skills and their enjoyment of their achievement and growing sense of self-worth but also gives recognition to the teachers who throughout the year invested many hours of dedicated training of their students to ensure that both technically and creatively their contribution would bear the hall mark of excellence in skill, knowledge and understanding.
A great diversity of approaches is to be found in this programme of Dance: Classical Ballet, Ballet, Modern, Hip-Hop, Contemporary, and Celtic. Great pride is evident in the presentation of every item in visualising authentic details, in terms of dance techniques and the costuming which adds to the colourfulness and interest of the programme.
This programme of achievement beautifully costumed and outstanding for the range of the age groups of the participants, and for the freshness and vitality of the work, testifies to many hours of strenuous effort and disciplined endeavour on the part of hundreds of young people, and their skilful teachers, striving to externalise in worthwhile creative achievements, their joy in developing their skill in this stimulating form of activity. These showcases are a joyous celebration of the sense of achievement and self-worth developed and experienced by the participants.
