Extremely proud of former student Thomas Varney, who is in his graduate year at Central School of Ballet and will be performing on stages across the nation as a member of the Ballet Central Tour, and also former student Sophie Bond who has recently graduated from The Hammond School and has just received her first professional nine month contract as a dancer/singer on board a cruise ship starting in January.
The School was very excited to be invited to perform at The Nottingham Arts Theatre's 70th Anniversary Gala Concert, with Senior Students performing two pieces during the show.
Next month Senior Students are all looking forward to performing a new contemporary piece entitled 'I Am Dust' choreographed by NTDS Teacher/Choreographer Daisy Moreton at the fabulous Unite The Scene 2018 dance platform.
