The JOMBA! YOUTH FRINGE is open to dancers
under the age of 16 years old. It is a support initiative for the various
‘Dance Development’ projects operating in KwaZulu-Natal and provides a space to
celebrate the up-and-coming generation of young contemporary dancers and dance
practitioners.
The JOMBA! YOUTH FRINGE has access to
limited resources, and therefore applicants should be aware that the event
usually takes place in a designated community hall or open air space and as such
has no ‘black out’ capacity. To this end, a sound system (CD operated, AUDIO
formatted – NOT MP3/MP4, also no cell phones/ipods/ipads) is provided (there
are no ‘main tabs’; AV or smoke machine facilities, and there are no dance mats
provided).
The JOMBA! YOUTH FRINGE is not a dance
competition, there are no awards/rewards offered to participants. The JOMBA!
YOUTH FRINGE is free-of-charge for participants and the public alike.
Works submitted for consideration should
not exceed a 6-minute duration (please do adhere to this time-frame). Works
that do exceed a 6-minute duration will not be considered, and the Jomba! production
team reserves the right to omit works from the performance programme should
they not adhere to this time duration.
The JOMBA! YOUTH FRINGE committee welcomes
contemporary, traditional and popular dance forms onto its platform.
Depending on budgets, the JOMBA! Festival
will supply a small transport honorarium of R300 (three hundred rand only) to
each group who participates – this is to be confirmed! If, however your group does not require this,
please do inform the organisers beforehand.
