Youngsters interested in a dance career are invited to an open day in Eden.
The Lowry Centre for Advanced Training in Dance will hold an open day on May 7 at Newbiggin Village Hall ahead of a live audition day on May 29 for entry on to the acclaimed CAT dance scheme for young dancers aged between 10 and 16.
The open days will help youngsters prepare for the audition for the centre, part of a national programme funded by the Department of Education’s Music and Dance Scheme. Centres for Advanced Training exist to help identify and assist children with exceptional potential, regardless of their personal circumstances, to benefit from world-class specialist training as part of a broad and balanced education.
The primary aim of the scheme is to provide a strong foundation from which students can access professional training conservatoires, advancing their potential towards a sustainable and successful career in dance whether as a performer, choreographer or otherwise.
The open day will run from 10am to 2pm and places can be booked via email at [email protected]
