The Baxter Dance Festival 2010

Become part of Cape Town’s premier dance event at the Baxter Theatre


The Baxter Dance Festival is now in its sixth year and promises to be a bumper season in August, with some exciting innovations planned to showcase and celebrate Cape Town’s extensively diverse and dynamic dance talent.

Widely regarded as Cape Town’s premier dance platform, the festival aims to provide emerging and established dance companies and choreographers with an opportunity to present their work, whilst striving to nurture and promote dance talent in the Western Cape.

The Main Programme will feature work by established professional companies, as well as the newly commissioned work.

This programme will be made up of various works of different lengths while the Fringe Programme will run from 14:00 on Sunday, 29 August, and will include work by youth groups and dance schools, school groups, traditional African dance groups and choreographers who request that their work run on this programme for practical or other reasons.

Cost is R75p/p for the main festival from 25 - 28 August | R30p/p for Fringe on 29 August.
