Volunteers
As usual we're looking for lovely people to volunteer to help at Weymouth Dance Festival. Whether you can only help for one session, or are free on several days, we need you. Please take a look at our volunteers page, where there's info about roles and a link to the sign-up form. All help gratefully received!
Running order
Here's the Festival running order.
Music
The deadline for music is Friday 23 September. We only accept music in digital format. To try and simplify the process, this year we're asking teachers (not parents) to send us the MP3 files. We'll be emailing teachers soon with more information.
Adjudicator
Our adjudicator this year will be Angela Whittle, LISTD AUKA. We're looking forward to welcoming her to Weymouth in October.
Angela trained at Bird College with further professional development at The Centre of Performing Arts. She worked as a dancer and choreographer in the UK and overseas, before taking up freelance teaching work for Sylvia Young, Pineapple Studios, Patricia Hammond Theatre School amongst others. She founded, and is Principal of Westminster School of Performing Arts, a part-time school offering a comprehensive range of subjects to pupils from 3 to 19 years. Angela is a dance adjudicator for The British and International Federation of Festivals and a Licentiate of the I.S.T.D. Happy to adjudicate online festivals.
